Sedum kamtschaticum - Orange Stonecrop, Phedimus kamtschaticus

Sedum kamtschaticum (Orange Stonecrop, Phedimus kamtschaticus) is one of those plants that practically takes care of itself. This tough little succulent quickly forms a colorful, weed-suppressing carpet just 4-6 inches tall, covered with bright yellow star-shaped flowers in late spring and summer. As the weather cools, the foliage turns beautiful shades of orange and red, keeping the display going long after the blooms fade. It loves full sun, thrives in rocky or sandy soil, laughs at drought once established, and is perfect for rock gardens, borders, stone walls, slopes, or spilling over containers. If you're looking for an easy, low-maintenance groundcover that looks great year after year, Orange Stonecrop is a winner.
