Frosted Fire Stonecrop (Sedum 'Frosted Fire')

Frosted Fire Stonecrop (Sedum 'Frosted Fire') is a striking, upright sedum variety known for its variegated foliage, sturdy growth habit, and showy late-summer blooms. This drought-tolerant perennial provides bold contrast, structure, and an eye-catching focal point in borders, rock gardens, and pollinator-friendly landscapes.

Distinctive Features

'Frosted Fire' forms a strong, clump-forming mound of thick, succulent leaves with bright green centers and creamy white margins.
