Sedum ‘Matrona’

Family: Crassulaceae

• Clusters of pale pink flowers

• Grey green leaves

Sunlight: Full

Ultimate Height: 0.5 - 1 meters

Ultimate Spread: 0.1 - 0.5 meter

Flowering: Late Summer - Autumn

Care:

Cut back spent flower heads from February to April. New green foliage at the base of the plant should be visible, and should be left in place. Add a layer of mulch around the Sedums, avoiding the new growth. At the end of May, perform the ‘Chelsea chop’ - cut a third to half of the stems to the ground, to discourage the plant from flopping out from the centre. Stonecrops do not need any aftercare other than to water occasionally.
