SUNSPARKLER™ LIME TWISTER STONECROP
Sedum SunSparkler® 'Lime Twister' is a vibrant, variegated stonecrop groundcover that brings a unique "braided" look and high-contrast color to the sunny garden. It is prized for its eye-catching foliage - each succulent, lime-green leaf is etched with a crisp, creamy-yellow margin. Reaching a compact height of only 6 to 9 inches with a spread of up to 18 inches, it forms a dense, mounded mat that maintains its variegated brilliance from spring through frost without "reverting" to solid green.
In late summer and early autumn, Sedum 'Lime Twister' is topped with large, flattened clusters of soft pink flowers that create a beautiful pastel contrast against the bright yellow and green leaves. These nectar-rich blooms are a favorite for pollinators, providing a vital late-season food source for butterflies and bees. The thick, waxy foliage is exceptionally tough, showing excellent resistance to heat, drought, and common foliage diseases.
For the most striking variegation and the tightest growth habit, plant 'Lime Twister' in a location that receives full sun. It is a rugged and low-maintenance perennial that thrives in average to poor, well-drained soil; avoiding over-fertilization is key to keeping the mounded form tidy and the colors sharp. In the landscape, it is an ideal choice for the front of a sunny border, as a bright filler in rock gardens, or as a colorful "spiller" in mixed containers and stone troughs.
