Sedum - Stonecrop 
SEDUM—Stonecrop 
A genus of plants which vary in habit from dwarf, 
• reeping plants to those of larger growth, as Spectabile, 
which grows about 2 feet high. Some are evergreen 
and others of deciduous growth. The dwarf kinds do 
well as edgings to borders or in rock gardens. Others 
are suitable for grouping in the border. They are the 
easiest of all plants to grow.
