Sedum spurium ‘Tricolor’ is a mat-forming succulent that spreads via creeping stems with a particularity – each leaf holds three distinct colors.
The leaves are fleshy, oval, and slightly serrated along the edges. They are defined by a green center, encircled by a white border, finished off with a bright pink/red rim.
The star-shaped flowers appear in summer, typically pink, which attract pollinators like bees and butterflies.
It is known for its ability to form mats very quickly – whether on the ground or on a wall or, especially popular at the moment, on green roofs.
It can also be used to fill in gaps between stepping stones or in crevices, if you have that kind of problem!
The Tales:
Genus name comes from the Latin word sedeo meaning to sit in reference to the general growing habit of many of the sedums (they sit and sprawl over rocks). Living the easy life they are.
Specific epithet means false. Though its use here is unclear… false sitting doesn’t make a whole lot of sense does it, would that be standing?
And then Tricolor means, well, Three Colors.
It’s all very straight forward here.
