Sedum ternatum – Woodland Stonecrop – 1.25-Quart

$6.00

An adaptable, shade-tolerant plant with typical sedum attributes:thick, fleshy, waxy leaves and star-shaped, white flowers. Use as a groundcover under trees, in rock gardens and open woodlands. Plant it in an old stump and allow it to cascade down the sides. Can also be used as a container plant. Do not treat this native as you would non-native species of sedum that grow well in dry sunny spots – it needs a little respite from the sun and moist soil to thrive. Too much shade though will reduce flowering. Companions:Crested Iris, Meehan’s Mint, Toothwort, Solomon’s Seal.
