Stonecrop
Sedum Purple Carpet
This is a wonderful, vigorous evergreen perennial with an ornamental appearance and attractive, rounded, deep plum-purple foliage. It produces masses of stunning, star-shaped, dark purplish-red flowers which are produced in clusters and clothe the plant in a beautiful display May to August. It’s perfect for adding a splash of colour to unsightly patches of bare soil in the garden or for using in rock gardens, containers or wall niches. Tolerant of hot, dry spots of the garden, Sedums will also attract bees and butterflies to the garden and look lovely in hanging baskets or between stepping stones.

If you order perennials whilst they are dormant, they may not be visible above the soil level when purchased but will burst into life in spring. In the dormant period, we may not have stocks of all varieties in all pot sizes and therefore reserve the right to supply 9cm pots instead of 1 or 2 litre plants and adjust the price down accordingly.
