Sedum spectabile 'Autumn Joy'
Autumn Joy stonecrop
Native to China & Korea (cultivar)
A late summer/fall beauty that grows up to 2 feet tall and wide. Extremely adaptable in full sun with great drought tolerance. Flowers open pink and are very attractive to butterflies and bees. The flowers fade to a coppery red and are a terrific compliment to grasses that have the same striking colors. Plants can be trimmed in spring when the plants are 8 inches tall to reduce overall height, but will delay flowering to later in the season.
