Sedum, Stonecrop
Sedum is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Crassulaceae, members of which are commonly known as stonecrops. The genus has been described as containing up to 600 species
- Low–growing sedum spreads along the ground, reaching only a few inches (or less) in height. This makes them perfect for use as a ground cover along paths, in rock gardens, or cascading down a stone wall.
- Upright sedum tends to form tall, upright clumps that produce a tight mass of tiny flowers. Their height and attractive flowers make them good candidates for border gardens.
