Sedum Autumn Joy Plug Young Plants (2)

Autumn Joy Stonecrop (Hylotelephium syn. Sedum) brings fall color to the garden with color-changing blooms. Thick, wilt-proof leaves give way to massive heads of clustered flowers in late summer. Blooms start pink, then gracefully darken to a deep rose-red as they age in the fall. These fresh flowers serve as a magnet to butterflies, then spent seed heads attract birds in fall and winter. We love this sedum for more than just its looks! This perennial handles heat, humidity, and mild drought with ease. Plus, it's deer resistant, so you won't have to worry about damage. Try combining this easy to grow plant with fragrant coneflowers and ornamental grasses for an attractive display.

You'll receive 2 well rooted cuttings in a 3in pot ready to plant.
