Sedums are fantastic plants for waterwise gardens as their succulent leaves hang onto even the tiniest bit of moisture. They're also unsurpassed as wildlife plants for attracting a whole range of beneficial insects to their starry clusters of flowers. As if that weren't enough, they thrive in sun, are frost hardy enough to survive a nuclear winter, and almost zero maintenance. Plant lots.

Description

Sedum telephium, Hylotelephium telephium 'Thundercloud' - sedum

APPEARANCE: Mounded succulent, with a perfectly-round globe of silver-green large leaves. The surface is covered with clusters of pinkish-white star-shaped flowers in summer. Taxonomists have decided to rename some of the easy-to-spell Sedum family as the tongue-twisting Hylotelephium family. We hope this doesn't catch on as a trend.
USE FOR: Rockeries, roof gardens, waterwise beds, coastal gardens, pots, wildlife gardens. Dry poor soils where little else thrives.
PLANTING : Plant in free-draining soil in bright sunlight. Very happy in rocky sandy soils and exposed locations; doesn't like wet soils or clay. Totally cold hardy.
CARE: Almost none required. Snip off old flowerheads in winter if you want to tidy the appearance.
HEIGHT & WIDTH: 30 cm H x 30 cm W
YOUR PLANTS : These are tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80mm high and 42 mm wide.
