Sedum spurium 'Dragon's Blood'

The Classic Red Creeping Stonecrop

Sedum spurium 'Dragons Blood' Sedum spurium ‘Dragon’s Blood’ is one of the most widely grown for green roofs and rockeries, and for good reason.

In my opinion, it’s one of the very best of the red types, with good colour all growing season, particularly in early spring.

Once the winter ends, this deciduous variety will push out lots of bright red buds, signaling the arrival of spring.

Sedum 'Dragon's Blood' In the summer, the burgundy lobed foliage and hot pink blooms are used for adding a splash of deeper colour to mixed plantings, or in combination with some of the taller Sedum in borders.

I also use it in container plantings and planters as a draping accent in combination with other hardy succulent plants such as Sempervivum.

It also adds a hit of colour in Sedum tapestry beds.
