	Brooklyn Botanic Garden: Spectacular Sedums—Fall-Flowering Plants for Texture and Color
		Sedum alboroseum 'Frosty Morn' is as cooling as a mint julep; its pale green leaves are streaked with ivory.
		Trailing sedums are useful at the front of a border, along the edge of a path or driveway, tucked into a rockery or into wall crevices, or even at the lip of pots or windowboxes.
		Sedums can be grown from seed (start indoors in the fall or direct sow outside in early spring), but the easiest way to propagate them is by division.

		Sedum x 'Bertram Anderson' is one of the flashier low-growing (to 6 inches high) sedums, with pink flowers and fleshy leaves that stay dark purple all season long.
		Sedums, commonly called stonecrop, offer a number of things to admire, not least of which is they're easy to grow and endlessly useful.
		These ground-hugging sedums are perfect for carpeting drier areas of the garden, and look their best covering a hillside or draping over a pot.

		Sedums are a great plant group to grow in our prairie climate, as they rarely have pest problems and easily stand up to the dry hot summers.
		Sedum spurium (two-row stonecrop) is probably the best known of the groundcover types because many cultivars, with showy flowers, are widely available.
		Sedum Autumn Joy (also called Herbsfreude), developed in 1955, is the most well known and widely grown of all sedums.

		Sedum reflexum, known as stone orpine or crooked yellow stonecrop, has a bitter and sour taste, and is occasionally used as a salad or herb.
		Many sedums are extensively cultivated as garden plants, due to their interesting and attractive appearance and hardiness.

	Sedums & succulents : drought tolerant plants are ideal in planters (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		In addition, natives of drier regions such as sedums (or stonecrops) and succulents are becoming more popular for gardens and are particularly suitable for container gardens.
		The genus Sedum is composed of around 400 species native mainly to rocky, mountainous regions of the Northern Hemisphere, which is why they are also commonly called "stonecrops." Sedum belongs to the plant family Crassulaceae, which includes such other succulent genera as Kalanchoe and Sempervivum.
		Most gardenworthy sedums are easygoing, adaptable, and hardy from USDA Zones 4 to 9, though some species are tender and demand temperatures above freezing point in the winter.

	Stonecrop
		Recommending sedums to inquiring gardeners in our community is practically a public service, given the low maintenance requirements of these nonetheless interesting plants and their ability to survive with little or no supplemental water.
		Most sedums are perennials—there are a few annuals and biennials but they’re seldom offered for sale except by collectors—and most of them are fully hardy here.
		Sedums are succulents, characterized by fleshy leaves to store the water they need to grow on.

	Inexpensive and Low-Maintenance Plants for Garden Railroads
		Miniature Sedums are tiny relatives of that succulent plant my grandmother called "live-forever," and which we now call by fancier names like "Autumn Joy." Grandma's friends used smaller varieties on the walls of their rock gardens, etc., so it's only natural that a certain amount of these have found their way to garden railroads.
		Sedums don't require much soil to take root and hold, and they're drought-resistant (especially if their roots can get in someplace cool and damp, like a crack in a wall).
		Miniature sedums are very easy to spread, they fill in nicely around obstacles and taller plants, and they survive very dry and very wet weather.

		Sedums, notably the rose-headed ``Autumn Joy,'' makes you forget all about the ubiquitous (but pretty boring) purple and white kale many use to jazz up fall gardens.
		Sedum spurium ``Tricolor,'' with foliage in white-, red-, or pink-and-green, adds color even when it's out of bloom.
		But one of the most beloved sedums, and the latest to bloom, is ``Indian Chief,'' also known as S. herbstfreude or ``Autumn Joy.'' In the Puget Sound area, its ruddy flowers last well into spring.

		Just a hunch, but I predict sedum may be the next gotta-have-it plant group.
		Sedums come in all shapes and sizes, but for the sake of description and garden use, it helps to divide them into two general types: the low, spreading mat-formers and the tall garden hybrids.
