Sedum
Stonecrop
Tough yet delightful, beloved by butterflies and bees, these succulent perennials flourish even in lean and mean soil. Asserting a decidedly horizontal element to the garden, long-lasting flat umbels of starry flowers emerge from buds in broccoli-like clusters. Supported by stout sturdy stems, the blooms mature through a range of colors, extending the visual delight well into winter. Asking only for good drainage along with an occasional sip of water, Sedums are durable, reliable and virtually maintenance free.

Celebrated for a stout stature and tightset domed blooms, this English cultivar’s large radiant rosy pink heads galvanize butterflies, bees and plant enthusiasts with late season color and nectar galore. A sturdy swell of thick compact magenta-suffused stalks plus fleshy greenish-gray leaves anchors the long lasting floral display. Exhibiting a trim no-coddle disposition, ‘Carl’ makes a fabulous cut flower, fresh or dried, and stand-out presentation in a favored pot, the rockery or a mixed border, especially when sprinkled alongside other toughies such as Eragrostis spectabilis or Eryngium ‘Big Blue’.
