Sedum Lineare

Sedum lineare is mat-forming evergreen stonecrop that is native to eastern Asia. It typically grows to 4-6" tall but spreads by erect to decumbent stems to 12" or wider. Narrow, linear to linear-lanceolate leaves (to 1 1/4" long) are light green. Yellow flowers (to 5/8" wide) bloom in cymes in late spring to early summer.

Genus name comes from the Latin word sedeo meaning to sit in reference to the general growing habit of many of the sedums. Easily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils in full sun. Tolerates some light shade. It also tolerates drought and heat. Thrives in sandy to gravelly soils of moderate to low fertility.
