Sedum spectabile Hot Stuff (PP17212) is the shortest S. spectabile available. Measuring at just one foot tall, this little cutie is the perfect height for the front of the flower border or containers.

This plant forms a tight, upright mound of green foliage that is topped with clusters of bright purplish pink flowers in late summer. The strong stems remain standing even after the plant is finished flowering (it doesn’t split apart at the center like some of the taller varieties). If left standing over the winter, the seed heads provide food for birds.

A Northern Sunset Perennial. It prefers average, dry to well-drained soil in full sun to part sun.
