Stonecrop

From breeder Chris Hansen comes a fantastic series of sedums selected for their solid disease resistance, tremendous vigor and season-long color. Chris trials his plants extensively while subjecting them to overhead watering and outdoor wintering in tiny plugs with no cover. Very few pass his stringent tests and become worthy of the SunSparkler name. This upright selection forms a tight clump of shiny jade green leaves on cherry red stems. Rose pink flower clusters top the foliage in late summer.
