Sedum Gold Mound
Sedum 'Gold Mound' is grown for its colourful foliage and creeping growth habit. It forms a carpet of small, succulent, golden leaves. These are held as clusters on stems that creep across the ground to spring up new clusters. It typically grows to 15 cm in height and 30 cm in width, performing best when planted in full sun on a well-drained site. Sedum 'Gold Mound' is commonly grown in a container, used in rock gardens, or grown along the edge of a path where it can spill out. It is also well-suited for planting around outdoor living areas.
