Sedum ternatum ‘Larinem Park’
Woodland Stonecrop |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.485.400
The creeping selections of Stonecrop are excellent groundcover plants, particularly for hot, dry sites with poor soil. This variety forms a low carpet of small, rounded green leaves, spreading to form a thick patch. Clusters of white starry flowers appear in late spring. A fast grower, this is best kept away from slower alpine plants that it might smother. Also a good choice for tubs and mixed containers. Easy to propagate; simply break pieces off in early summer and stick them in the ground. Tolerates moist, shady sites. Evergreen. Native to the eastern USA.
