Sedum 'Autumn Joy'

The ‘Autumn Joy’ is a herbaceous perennial.

Succulent leaves emerge early as rosettes and march up stems that develop soon after. In summer, pink puffs of flower clusters adorn the tops of the stems. They thrive in conditions that other plants might consider tough. Once established, they are drought tolerant, but they also flourish in rainy regions.

The flowers of Sedum spectabile attract butterflies and several other insects. This is especially welcome because it does this in late summer when many other flowering plants have died down.
