Sedum ternatum

When to plant woodland stonecrop

Woodland stonecrop is a low native succulent groundcover that creeps over rocks and shaded ground, bearing clusters of white star-shaped flowers in spring (NC State: April to June). Plant 6 to 12 inches apart in spring or fall in well-drained partial-to-full shade; unlike most sedums it tolerates shade and moist soil, and it seldom needs watering.

Woodland Stonecrop 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.
