Of the sedum spuriums this is my favorite so far. It does well as a container plant covering the soil. It is consistently more plush in appearance than most sedum spuriums in my yard/containers. Does best in a fertile, moist, well-drained planting medium.
The flowers seem to prefer to come off the ends of the plants and are prolific. Am thinking it might make a nice easy care sedum/semp hanging basket plant. |

Slow growing tree/herb. Makes a good container plant. Leaf, and flowers can be used for cooking. Leaf is very fragrant.

For the first 2 winters in my zone 5a garden, this shrub died back to the ground and re grew each spring.

Am unsure of the hardiness of this plant. Different "authorities" give a very wide range of hardiness zones(Zones 3-9, 6-8, 4-9).
