Sedum kamtschaticum var. floriferum 'Weihenstephaner Gold'

Embodying the robust spirit of its native lands, Sedum kamtschaticum var. floriferum 'Weihenstephaner Gold' is a vivacious, ground-hugging succulent that promises to bring a burst of sunshine to any garden space. Originating from the rugged terrains of Russia, this hardy plant flaunts fleshy, spoon-shaped leaves that transform from a deep green to a rich, golden hue as the season progresses, offering a year-round spectacle of color. The foliage alone makes 'Weihenstephaner Gold' a coveted addition, but the plant truly comes into its own come late spring to early summer.

During this blooming period, it is adorned with star-shaped, bright yellow flowers that seem to capture the very essence of sunlight, creating a dazzling display that can enliven even the dullest of spaces. This sedum variety reaches a modest height of about 6 inches, but its spreading habit allows it to cover ground effectively, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, borders, or as a vibrant ground cover that weaves through cracks and crevices with ease.

Not only is 'Weihenstephaner Gold' a feast for the eyes, but it is also remarkably low-maintenance, thriving in well-drained soil and full sun. Its drought-resistant nature means it can flourish with minimal watering, making it a perfect pick for the forgetful gardener or those in dryer climates. Whether planted in swathes to create a carpet of gold or used as a charming accent in a mixed succulent container, this sedum variety promises to be a showstopper, bringing warmth and vitality to any setting it graces.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
