Sedums (stonecrops) are easy plants with succulent foliage, often brightly coloured, either all year or at certain seasons. In this group are the small varieties, suitable for rock gardens, raised beds and troughs. There are clusters of starry flowers, often yellow, but there are also pink and white ones.
Sedum ewersii forms a low, non-spreading mound or mat of rounded, blue-green leaves, with clusters of rosy pink starry flowers. It is deciduous in winter, and if you have time, trim it to the ground before growth starts in the spring.
