Sedum spurium, the Caucasian stonecrop[1] or two-row stonecrop,[1] is a flowering plant in the family Crassulaceae.
Description[]
Sedum spurium is a spreading evergreen perennial with alternate, simple, fleshy leaves on creeping stems. The flowers are pink, borne in spring through fall.[citation needed]
Taxonomy[]
Sedum spurium is one of a number of species of Sedum that segregate amongst the Crassulaceae in the Rhodiola clade, and were placed in the tribe Umbiliceae. These species are generally regarded as forming a separate genus, Phedimus.[2][3][4]}[5]
Cultivation[]
Several cultivars exist, of which Sedum spurium 'Schorbuser Blut', with rich pink flowers, has received the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[6] It is hardy to −20 °C (−4 °F) and below, but requires a sheltered position in full sun, with well-drained soil.
