This eye-catching cherry red and hot pink variegated foliage ground cover will stand out in your garden. This fast-growing perennial groundcover will add interest to your gardens from spring into fall. Grow Sunsparkler Wildfire Stonecrop Sedum in full sun growing conditions. This short plant will grow to 6 inches tall and 18 inches wide in a mounded habit. It’s hardy in USDA planting zones 4 through 9.
Sunsparkler Wildfire Stonecrop Sedum attracts butterflies and is deer resistant. Add this sedum for a cheery, colorful filler in a container garden. Plant it in rock gardens, in mass planting as a ground cover, or in the front of border gardens. Large, long-lasting rose-pink flower heads appear in late summer.
Sunsparkler® Wildfire Stonecrop Sedum Care
Once established, this plant is drought tolerant. The colors will be more vibrant in full sun and drier growing conditions. Add a layer of compost when planting and then once a year.
The dried flower heads remain attractive in the winter garden. Wait until spring to cut them back. If you mulch your gardens, only add a thin layer around this sedum. Add just enough for weed control but not enough to retain excess moisture. Sedums don’t like competition from weeds.
Sunsparkler® Wildfire Stonecrop Sedum Spacing
Space individual plants 19 inches apart to give this ground cover room to spread out. It will be happier when given room to grow.

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.

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.
