Stonecrop 'Beach Party', Sedum telephium 'Beach Party', Showy Sedum 'Beach Party', Hylotelephium 'Beach Party'
Bred for both a compact habit that doesn’t open up, and large flower heads, Sedum ‘Beach Party’ produces masses of star-shaped, light rose-pink flowers resembling mounding dunes. They contrast beautifully with the fresh yellow-green glossy foliage which takes an attractive red edge in spring.
Members of the genus Hylotelephium, border sedums are essential beauties for the late season garden and deserve a spot in gravel gardens. Undemanding, not aggressive, with fleshy, drought resistant foliage and lovely domed flowerheads packed with a profusion of tiny starry flowers, opening to white, pink or red blossoms in late summer or early fall, they are a popular attraction to butterflies. They look particularly attractive with Asters, Solidago (Ornamental Golden rods), Boltonias and Ornamental Grasses. Standing for months, their faded flowers and seed heads provide a colorful display in late fall and winter, even under snow caps. There are hundreds of Hylotelephium cultivars and hybrids to pick from. Which one will be yours?
