Sedum kamtschaticum ‘Variegatum’

Russian Stonecrop

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.485.230

The creeping selections of Stonecrop are excellent groundcover plants, particularly for hot, dry sites with poor soil. This variety forms a low mound of attractive green and cream-splashed leaves. Clusters of orange-yellow star flowers appear in summer. Good choice for tubs and mixed containers. Easy to propagate by dividing in spring or fall. Deciduous; trim stems and dead flower heads back in early spring. This is one of the better variegated Stonecrops, with little tendency to revert to all green. Excellent for edging, and not inclined to be invasive.
