Sedum brevifolium is a small but beautiful sedum species, bearing tiny, glaucous and succulent leaves that are topped with starry white flowers in summer.
It associates well with other sedums and looks superb surrounded by pebbles or gravel in a container, rock garden or the cracks and crevices of walls. Though attractive in flower, Sedum brevifolium is at its very best in midwinter when its colourful evergreen foliage makes it stand out over other winter foliage plants.
Grow Sedum brevifolium in rock gardens or containers, in well-drained soil in full sun. Avoid growing in a spot that will get excessively wet in winter.
