Sedum populifolium

Twiggy and unusual Stonecrop

A unique and unusual stonecrop, Sedum populifolium has leaves resembling poplar or aspen leaves and a twiggy shrub-like deciduous growth habit.

Slightly jagged foliage in a bright green colour make this plant a good foil for other green Sedum or a background for low plants like Sempervivum.  The starry white flowers are an added attraction.

I can see this Sedum used extensively in troughs or in a rockery, like a little shrub. As well, it’s got a lot of potential for miniature landscapes or even bonsai.

This plant as I've found out, roots so easily even from quite woody branches, it's easy to make lots of little trees. A new one for me is Sedum populifolium 'Janet Poor', which I'll be trialing right alongside my regular species to see if it's superior in any way.
