ROCKMONT NURSERY 
SEDUMS 
(Stonecrop) 
Most sedums enjoy full sun and well drained soil. They are unexcelled for ground 
cover, for planting to fill the chinks in a dry stone wall, for planting between flag 
stones, for grave cover, etc. The rock garden is incomplete without one or more rep¬ 
resentatives of this group. Our sedums are all hardy and several varieties are evergreen.
