CARL STONECROP
Sedum 'Carl' is a highly regarded upright stonecrop known for its exceptionally tidy, mounded habit and intense flower color. Reaching a sturdy height of 18 to 24 inches, 'Carl' features thick, succulent foliage in a soft gray-green hue that remains attractive throughout the spring and summer. In late summer and early autumn, it is crowned with dense, flattened clusters of star-shaped flowers in a brilliant, saturated rose-pink. These blooms are notably vibrant and provide a critical late-season nectar source for bees and butterflies before the onset of winter.
For the best garden performance, plant Sedum 'Carl' in a location that receives full sun, which ensures the stems remain strong and upright without the need for staking. It is a rugged and adaptable perennial that thrives in average to poor, well-drained soil and is remarkably drought-tolerant once established.
In the landscape, its uniform shape makes it an ideal choice for the middle of a sunny border, as a mass planting for a bold color statement, or as a reliable specimen in rock gardens. Maintenance is simple-just cut the stems back to the ground in late winter or early spring to make way for fresh new growth.
