RED CARPET STONECROP -
3-6 Inches Tall 12-18 Inches Wide--
Sedum spurium 'Red Carpet' is a premier low-growing stonecrop groundcover known for its intense, year-round color and exceptional durability. It features small, succulent, scalloped leaves that form a dense, weed-suppressing mat only 3 to 6 inches tall. In the spring and summer, the foliage displays a rich, deep red to burgundy hue that provides a striking contrast to green-leaved perennials. As temperatures drop in the autumn and winter, the color often intensifies to a brilliant crimson, offering some of the best late-season interest in the genus.
In mid-summer, Sedum 'Red Carpet' is topped with small clusters of star-shaped, deep pink to red flowers that are highly attractive to butterflies and other pollinators. For the most vibrant red foliage and the tightest growth habit, plant 'Red Carpet' in a location that receives full sun. It is a rugged and drought-tolerant selection that thrives in average to poor, well-drained soil, making it an ideal choice for rock gardens, stone wall crevices, or as a colorful edge along a sunny walkway. Maintenance is very simple - just clear away any winter debris in early spring to allow the fresh, colorful new growth to emerge.
