Product Description
Sedum 'Yellow Brick Road' PP32158 CPBRAF (25) Bare Root Plants
ROCK 'N LOW® Collection
Common Name: Stonecrop
Looking for a beautiful groundcover? 'Yellow Brick Road' is your answer! This perennial will cover its dark green leaves and red stems with fine-textured yellow flowers mid to late summer. This forms an impeccable habit with little to no lodging, a problem that plagues many Sedum. This variety blooms a few weeks later than the standard summer flowering Stonecrop Sedum kamtschaticum (Russian Stonecrop), bridging the gap between summer and fall flowering groundcover Sedum.
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 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.
