Plant Features

Coral Carpet Sedum Plants are a creeping succulent that produces salmon-orange young growth that matures to a bright green before taking on rich, red tones in the fall. Adding to the show are the delicate, pale pink star flowers. Easy to grow, tolerates poor soil, evergreen, and tolerates light shade, heat and drought. It is also a host plant for the Phoebus Parnassian butterfly.

Our Sedum Plants are grown with care and are completely free from harmful pesticides, making them a safe and hardy addition to your garden. Guaranteed to arrive healthy and ready to thrive!

Planting Instructions:

  • - Best planted in spring or fall for optimal root establishment
  • - Space plants 12-24 inches apart, depending on variety, to allow for mature growth

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 6.0-7.5
  • - Prefers well-drained soil, tolerates poor or sandy soils

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water deeply when first planted, allowing the soil to dry between waterings
  • - Once established, Sedum is highly drought-tolerant and thrives with minimal watering

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Sedum typically thrives without fertilizer, but a light, balanced fertilizer in early spring can support growth
  • - Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to weak, leggy growth

Pruning and Training:

  • - Deadhead spent blooms to maintain appearance, though Sedum heads often provide winter interest
  • - Cut back stems in early spring before new growth emerges to maintain a tidy form

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Sedum is generally pest-free and deer-resistant, though aphids may occasionally be an issue
  • - Ensure good air circulation to prevent any potential fungal issues

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Blooms from late summer through fall with clusters of tiny, star-shaped flowers in shades of pink, red, or yellow

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Hardy in USDA zones 3-9, tolerates heat and cold once established

Companion Plants for Sedum:

  • - Echinacea: Complements Sedum with its bright, daisy-like blooms and similar drought tolerance
  • - Coreopsis: Provides a continuous display of yellow blooms that contrast beautifully with Sedum’s fleshy leaves
  • - Salvia: Adds vertical spikes of blue or purple to complement Sedum’s low-growing form
  • - Achillea: Complements Sedum with its clusters of long-lasting flowers and pollinator appeal
  • - Lavender: Adds a fragrant, drought-tolerant companion that pairs beautifully with Sedum’s resilient nature

Best packaging ever

I foolishly chose this sedum as a filler for a rock garden I built to effectively reduce weeding in the area. I say foolishly, because it turns out to be hard to find and crazy expensive. Not only was GrowJoy Coral Carpet cheaper than anywhere else, it was healthier and more generously portioned. AND the packing ... wow! That alone will keep me shopping here. Not a leaf was harmed in the unboxing!

Summer plantings - Coral Carpet

I was reluctant about ordering (10 new plants) in the middle of summer, but they were plants I wanted and I had holes in my garden where they needed to be planted - so I took a chance and I'm so glad I did - all 10 plants were in excellent condition and ready to plant! They were carefully packaged and arrived without any damage (clever containers). I will never be reluctant again when orderings from Growjoy!!!
