Sedum spectabile, commonly known as showy stonecrop, is a perennial succulent plant native to East Asia. It features thick, fleshy leaves that are often blue-green in color and produces clusters of small, star-shaped flowers. These flowers typically bloom in late summer to early fall, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies. This hardy plant thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, making it a popular choice for gardens and landscapes. Sedum spectabile is drought-tolerant, requiring minimal maintenance, and is often used in rock gardens, borders, and as ground cover due to its attractive foliage and vibrant blooms.
