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 (Hylotelephium) 'Bertram Anderson' is an excellent plant for a sunny, well-drained place, with its purplish grey leaves perfectly matched to the deep rosy pink flowers, which are produced in great abundance from early autumn.
