Description

Sedum spurium ‘John Creech’ is a proven performer on green roofs, with a much lower, tighter growing habit than most other spurium cultivars. It forms a dense low mat with small, closely-packed shiny foliage. Green leaves drop in the late autumn, retaining small rosettes at the tip of each stem throughout winter. Pink flowers put on a show mid to late summer. This plant is reliably tough and can tolerate the variety of extreme conditions often found in a roof environment. A great choice for planted walls.
