Sedum Neon

Sedum Neon

Neon Stonecrop sends bright magenta-pink flower heads above a sturdy clump of gray-green leaves. The broad, fleshy leaves have softly scalloped edges and sit along thick upright stems.

The late-summer bloom display brings concentrated color to a sunny border. Its balanced clump works well in repeated groups alongside grasses and other late-flowering perennials.

Grow in full sun with well-drained soil. Avoid a site where water collects around the roots.
