sedum: Autumn Joy (Dubuque)
"Sedum 'Autumn Joy' . . . . is a popular, low-maintenance perennial prized for its late-summer blooms that turn from light pink to copper-red by autumn. Growing 1–2 feet tall and wide, it thrives in full sun and well-drained, lean soil, making it ideal for borders and attracting butterflies." (AI overview). . . . All true, when plants are in full sun with room to grow and flourish. The three I'm giving away are looking for new homes because they've been crowded and shaded. They want sun and room to grow.
