Sedum 'Autumn Joy'

Hylotelephium is a genus of about 33 species of drought-tolerant herbaceous perennials native to Asia, Europe, and North America. They are commonly called stonecrop and are excellent plants for fall gardens. Many species and hybrids were formerly placed in the genus Sedum.

Many hylotelephiums and sedums are commonly called stonecrop because of the frequent sighting of the genus in the wild growing on rocks or stony ledges.

Sedum Autumn Joy is reliable bloomer, the chameleon-like flower progresses from warm pink, to bronze rose, to a deeper brick red before frost. Let dried flower heads remain to provide nice winter interest.
