Sedum 'Bertram Anderson'

How to grow Sedum 'Bertram Anderson' in NZ

Sedum 'Bertram Anderson' grows best in full sun and well drained soil, where its foliage colour develops most strongly. It tolerates dry conditions well and is ideal for low water gardens or exposed sites. Avoid heavy clay or boggy soil, as sedums prefer drier environments. Water occasionally during extended dry spells to maintain steady growth. This variety spreads gradually to form a neat mat that adds interest and colour throughout the year.

Sedum 'Bertram Anderson' care tips

Sedum 'Bertram Anderson' is exceptionally low maintenance and thrives with minimal care. Water sparingly and avoid overwatering, as the plant prefers lean, dry conditions. Trim back older or leggy stems in late winter to tidy the plant and encourage fresh new growth. Avoid heavy feeding, as sedums perform best in nutrient lean soils. Remove spent flowers if desired, though the foliage alone provides strong visual appeal year round.

Sedum 'Bertram Anderson' typically grows ten to fifteen centimetres tall and spreads thirty to forty centimetres wide. Its compact, clumping habit makes it ideal for edging, rockeries, and mixed perennial beds. Space plants twenty to thirty centimetres apart for full coverage as they spread.
