Exposure
Selected from crosses involving Sedum ‘Neon’ and ‘Stardust’, this Hortech introduction is robust and upright (proud) in its growth habit. ‘Proud Mary’ quickly forms sturdy clumps of mid-green foliage and during late summer and fall is topped with flat heads of clear white flowers. It is lovely as a small scale groundcover and its best companions are other sun-loving, drought-tolerant perennials.

Care
Watering:
Proud Mary™ Sedum is very drought tolerant and typically only needs watering during the hottest days of summer.
Fertilizing:
Proud Mary™ Sedum needs little fertilizer, but benefits from a single springtime or fall topdressing (about 1 inch deep) of organic compost or well rotted leaves. Alternatively, a springtime application of a slow release fertilizer with a 3-1-2 ratio (such as a 15-5-10) can be applied at a rate of about 10 pounds per 1000 square feet.
Pruning:
Proud Mary™ Sedum should be enjoyed all winter long, then, during early April before it begins to grow again, it should be pruned or mowed back to ground level.
