Sedum 'Cherry Tart'

Stonecrop

Plant Type: Perennial

This new groundcover type Sedum offers never-before-seen cherry red foliage and a short, compact mounded habit. It holds its red foliage color from spring through fall. Large clusters of pink flowers top the colorful foliage from late August thru September.

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.
