An attractive semi-evergreen groundcover with rich green, toothed leaves and a dense creeping habit. Bright orange-yellow flowers which are produced in early summer eventually give way to rusty red seed capsules that add color to the fall garden.
Low, spreading sedums form a solid mat of foliage which is excellent for covering slopes or can be planted as a groundcover in sunny, dry areas. They are extremely drought tolerant and many are evergreen. These are terrific low-maintenance plants that always look their best.
Sedum Kamtschaticum, a drought-tolerant stonecrop with clusters of star-shaped yellow flowers, begins blooming in late spring. Flowers will mature to bronze. Pleasing foliage all season - scalloped with glossy deep-green fleshy, spoon-shaped leaves. Forms a dense mat that is tinged with red tones in autumn.
Sedum Kamtschaticum is perfect for troughs, stone walls, live roofs or a massed groundcover as it gently drapes over edges. One very tough character!
