Sedum telephium ruprechtii ‘Hab Gray’
Autumn Stonecrop |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.485.780
The border varieties of Stonecrop are a dependable choice for the late summer and fall garden, offering both foliage interest and a colourful display of flowers. This form has rounded leaves flushed with pinkish-grey to smoky purple. Clusters of creamy-yellow flowers are held above in late summer. Good in poor, dry soils. An unusual cut flower, and also attractive to butterflies. When grown in rich soil plants may be inclined to flop over – pinching the tips in June or early July will help to keep plants more bushy and compact.
