Sedum 'Little China' is a miniature form of one of our favorite sedums, Sedum tetractinum. This cute evergreen gem comes from Paul Little of Little Hill Nursery in Memphis. In good soil, a 4" pot will form a ground-hugging 3" tall x 2' wide patch in one year. The medium green leaves of Sedum 'Little China' are only .5" wide...1/3 smaller than typical coral reef sedum. The medium green, rubbery-textured, paddle-shaped foliage takes on a lovely burgundy-red cast at the onset of cool weather. In late spring, the patches are topped with open sprays of bright yellow flowers that hug the foliage. Sedum 'Little China' performs well in both sun and part sun.
