Product Description
Sedum 'Frosted Fire' (25) Bare Root Plants
Common Name: Autumn Stonecrop
Similar to AUTUMN CHARM™, ‘Frosted Fire’ is a variegated sport of ‘Autumn Fire’ rather than ‘Autumn Joy’. This plant shares the same brightly colored rosy flower heads, tighter growth habit, and thicker foliage as ‘Autumn Fire’. Light green leaves with creamy yellow, serrated margins form a dense, upright mound. Limited supply.
Tall, upright sedums form substantial clumps of foliage which can be substituted for shrubs in the landscape. Their stout, sturdy stems support the massive flower heads which develop in summer and burst into bloom in fall. If left standing, they provide winter interest and food for birds.
Sedum is one of the most popular perennials grown in American gardens because it is very easy to grow and hardy in most areas of the country. Because of its thick, succulent leaves which can store water, sedum is drought tolerant. It should be sited in average to poor soil that is well-drained. Plants grown in rich soil tend to be lanky and open. Most varieties should be grown in full sun to light shade. The lower growing types, however, will survive in partial shade.
This plant is not usually bothered by pests or diseases. The seed heads of the taller varieties provide excellent winter interest and food for birds. Remove them in spring when the new growth begins to show.
