Sedum rupestre ‘Angelina’
Blooming Time
Exposure
Discovered in a private garden in Croatia, ‘Angelina’ is a low growing trailing selection clothed in brilliant golden-yellow spruce-needle shaped foliage. It is superb not only as a general purpose trailing ground cover in small to moderate sized areas, but looks great trailing over the side of terraces and retaining walls, as a rock garden specimen, and as an exceptional container plant. Its flowers, borne during June and July, are lemon-yellow and carried upon upright stems 6-8 inches above the foliage.
