Sedum dasyphyllum 'Himalayan Skies' | Himalayan Skies Stonecrop
DESCRIPTION
Sedum dasyphyllum 'Himalayan Skies' is a compact, low-growing succulent that is prized for its attractive foliage and delicate blooms. The plant features small, powdery blue-green leaves that create a soft, cushion-like effect in the landscape. In late spring to early summer, the plant produces clusters of star-shaped white flowers, adding a subtle contrast to the foliage.
Originating from the mountainous regions of the Himalayas, this sedum is well-suited for dry, rocky environments. Its ability to thrive in poor soils and low maintenance requirements make it an excellent choice for rock gardens, containers, and groundcover applications. The combination of unique leaf color and seasonal flowers provides year-round interest.
