Use These Sedum in Your Creations
Sedum makes an ideal plant in containers and troughs due to its ability to resist drought and heat, in fact preferring those conditions. Growing Sedum in sandy soil, among gravel or rocks or in fast draining containers is its favorite situation. Here are some fabulous small scale choices for containers and trough plantings; they are also happy in root planters and strawberry pots either alone or in combination with Sempervivum or Jovibarba. The textures of all these combine to make a tapestry or patchwork quilt effect. All require well drained soil with some added grit, and prefer a stone or lava rock mulch around the crown. Water well, and then allow to dry almost completely between watering. Click on the links below for more details about each plant.
