Consider Fulda Glow as the improved version of Dragon’s Blood Sedum. Fulda Glow has bronzy-red and green foliage that seems to change as the plant grows through the summer. Then in July, the vibrant magenta flowers appear and make the perfect attractor for late-season, native pollinators. This tough-growing Sedum is easy to care for and requires little maintenance. The intense coloring improves during the summer and remains all winter.

Also known as Sedum spurium, Fulda Glow will grow well in any hard-to-plant spots in the garden. Along the top of a wall, next to a driveway or sidewalk, or in between patio pavers are all great spots to tuck this durable groundcover. Fulda Glow Sedum looks great in hanging baskets and will eventually tumble down the sides. Pair this succulent with hot-season annuals like Lantana, Osteospermum, and Sweet Potato Vine.

Fulda Glow Sedum Care

Sedum needs full sun and fast-draining soil to grow well. Planting Fulda Glow in a part shade position is acceptable if there are more than 4 hours of direct sun a day. Provide water for the first growing season to encourage good root development. Provide Sedum with 1 inch of water per week over either 2 or 3 sessions. After the first year, the plants will be well established and drought tolerant. Fertilizing is rarely necessary. Sedum will perform better with a thin, 1-inch layer of organic compost spread over the root zone in spring.

No pruning is necessary for Fulda Glow Sedum, although it is easily cut back if it outgrows a designated area. No deadheading is needed either. Sedums are self-cleaning succulents. Propagation is easy and can be done anytime from spring to fall. Either dig up sections of the plant to relocate or cut off stems and quickly replant in moist soil. You will know the new plants have transplanted successfully when new growth begins. Fulda Gold is hardy in USDA growing zones 3-8 and evergreen in the warmest zones.

Spacing Fulda Glow Sedum

Fulda Glow Sedum grows to a compact 3-4 inches tall and 18-24 inches wide at maturity. Plant multiple Sedums 18 inches apart center on center. You can space plants much closer together in containers. A 10-inch diameter pot will hold three plants easily.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
