Sedum seiboldii variegatum

A Japanese Gem for the Xeric Garden

Ultimate height of the group of arching stems is about 20cm (8"), with bright pink flowers a little higher.

Bloom happens late in the summer to fall with this species, and the variegated form is no different.

Although for most of the summer, the variegation doesn’t show, in late summer and into the fall the foliage turns a bright pink, accenting the variegation with a last vibrant blast before winter arrives and sends this species into dormancy.

As an herbaceous perennial, the stems die back and the plant re-grows from the crown in the spring.

Sedum seiboldii variegatum is great in combination with other taller border Sedum, the lower growing forms of Sedum spurium such as John Creech, and Sempervivum to form a ground cover at its feet.
