Growing Notes

This sedum is from a mild climate, and as such it is evergreen, so it looks good year round. It can be cut back hard if you’d like to reduce the size of the clump and these cuttings are easily propagated.
Will cascade from walls and pots.
Physically delicate. Avoid planting near high traffic areas.
