Hylotelephium ‘Dazzleberry’

SunSparkler Dazzleberry Sedum

Hylotelephium 'Dazzleberry' produces broad, flattened clusters of vivid raspberry-pink flowers from late summer into fall, creating a colorful display that attracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Thick, succulent leaves are smoky blue-gray with a soft powdery finish, forming a dense, upright mound that remains attractive throughout the growing season.
