Creeping sedum

Sedum (Stonecrop) is an easy to grow group of succulents that look great in the summer and autumn garden.The creeping sedums: Sedum ternatum, Sedum tetractinum and many others, are a wildly variable group with long narrow stems that grow along the ground and form mats of colorful fleshy foliage. Traditionally grown for their colorful foliage or for their draping form which softens the edge of containers and the rock walls that they have been tucked into. Although not specifically grown for flowers, creeping sedums do produce attractive but short sprays of flowers.

Although there are native creeping sedum species, our current inventory of species are not native to Northeastern region.
