How do we use your location?
Knowing your location helps us recommend plants that will thrive in your climate, based on your Growing Zone.
About the Sedums: These perennial plants enjoy gritty, fast-draining soil, and must have full hot sun. They're really desert plants, so give them sharp drainage. (Sedums are often called Succulents, due to their thickened moisture-retentive leaves.)
Once Sedums are established, you've assured yourself of loads of perennial interest for the later months when most garden flowers are gone.
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.

"Neighbor gave me a cutting. I put in container and still living. … 15 years later. Through snow and summer of no watering during vacation. She called it a Forever plant or Love plant!! I gave my sister a cutting and she forgot and left it in trunk of car for 7 days. Planted it in pot and still growing 2 years later!!!"
"I bought 3 of these last year. I didn't want to plant them outside (central PA) so late in the season, even when I was instructed to do so by American Meadow staff. I waited and planted them this spring and only one plant made it. Next time I'll have to be a better listener. The one that made it is small, but is flowering. Hopefully I can take cuttings next year and plant where there are bare spots."
"These produced brilliant blooms and have already started for next spring. I just hope with the odd weather that they live through the winter."
"A little slow growing but beautiful when it blooms!"
"I will second the other review that stated the growth is a bit sluggish on this one (the Autumn Joy Sedum I planted at the same time grew twice as fast). If you're looking to quickly fill in a spot, there are probably other perennials that will suit your needs better. However, the one that I ordered was healthy when it arrived and grew steadily, producing flower buds (looked like broccoli florets) very soon. Then those buds didn't really do anything until the very end of the season. I wonder, now, if trimming the flower off the first year might help it to grow bigger faster? It seemed to be putting an awful lot of energy into that flower for a long time before it bloomed. It's winter now. This year's growth is gone, but there are green shoots at the base of the plant, so I'm confident that it will make it through the winter and I'm excited to see what it does as it matures."
"I planted this in my front flower bed and it is absolutely beautiful and so easy to maintain. I put in a large group of this and am planning on doing more in the back beds."
"Sedum is a great plant for rock gardens and sunny dry places where other plants don't like. Good color."
"i had some of the ones i received that died right away. they replaced them. then second set died also and i didn't bother to try to get replacements again and feel guily. they were planted and taken care of properly. lost money"
