Sedum spurium

When to plant dragons blood sedum

Dragons Blood is a creeping, semi-evergreen sedum (stonecrop) groundcover whose green leaves flush purplish-red, with star-shaped pink-to-red flowers in spring and summer (NC State) and red fall foliage. Plant in spring or fall in well-drained, sandy or rocky soil; it prefers very dry soil, is drought tolerant, and should not be overwatered.

Dragons Blood Sedum is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
