Sedum - Summer Glory
Sedum (Autumn Stonecrop) Summer Glory, Sedum spurium 'Summer Glory', makes an excellent green groundcover, particularly for hot, dry sites with poor soil. This sedum likes sunny to partially shaded areas of the garden. This variety of sedum forms a low carpet of small, rounded green toothed leaves that develop reddish edges during the cool fall months and it spreads easily to form a thick patch. Clusters of bright carmine pink star flowers appear in midsummer to early fall. A fast grower, it is also a good choice for tubs and mixed containers. Trim stems and dead flower heads back in early spring. Summer Glory forms a habit that is somewhat like Fulda Glow and establishes quickly. This sedum is easy to maintain and will thrive in poor soil, but should be well drained. Divide every 3 to 5 years to maintain plant vigor. * Drought tolerant * Evergreen in mild climates * Low-maintenance plant that always look good! * Attracts butterflies and is deer resistant
