Sedum (Sedum Hybridum) - The perfect drought tolerant ground cover plant for hot dry sites! Sedum hybridum has evergreen foliage that spreads to form a dense mat of scalloped green leaves. In the summer, clusters of tiny star-shaped yellow flowers cover the foliage. The foliage can turn to shades of red and orange in the fall. Sedums are often used in floral design, they can be used for centerpieces, bouquets, boutonnieres, and hair pieces. Plants are drought resistant once established and used for xeriscape landscaping.
