First 5 images for display to show you some of the different colours of this plant due to seasonal changes and growing conditions and planted as a ground cover in our garden in Victoria. Most recent plants for sale shown, immediately after display images.
I once heard it said that Sedum is so hardy it is known as stone crop because the only thing easier to look after are stones! Others say it is known as stone crop because It is a succulent that stores water in its leaves making them plump in appearance resembling stones. One thing is for certain, they are an extremely hardy, easy to care for succulent, great in the garden as a ground cover or in pots and they also look good too!
Sedum album is commonly known as Baby Tears. As they age the leaves go very plump to retain moisture and change colour due to stress and growing conditions. They can turn a reddish bronze colour, go golden yellow, and even turn shades of pink.
In our garden in Victoria due to the higher rainfall and good nutrients they generally stay green as seen in image 2. They will grow over and cling to rocks, putting out feeder roots to get whatever moisture and nutrients they can and this is where we notice them turning a reddish bronze where they are situated in full sun as in image 3.
They are a good weed suppressant forming a thick mat and look great together with other low growing succulent ground covers when they mingle with each other. Plant each well separated though for effect as it has a great look all by itself.
