Name: Fish-scale sedum
(Sedum tetractinum)
Zones: 4 to 8
Size: 3 inches tall and
18 inches wide
Shade Tolerance: Full sun to partial shade
Ground-cover sedums do well in dry-shde areas, especilly in places that have
high summer heat. Shsllow, dry soils are no problem for fish-scale sedum
because it stores extra water in its foliage. This plant spreads by runners
to form a mat of overlapping foliage. Flowers appear in summer, and the
evergreen foliage turns red-dish bronze in fall. Don't plant it in waterlogged
soils as it will rot easily.
