📋 Product Description

Sedum 'Herbstfreude' (also known as 'Autumn Joy') is a popular, hardy perennial known for its late-season blooms and drought tolerance. This reliable sedum is perfect for adding colour and texture to borders and rock gardens as summer turns to autumn.

Product Information

  • Vibrant Blooms: 'Herbstfreude' produces large, flat clusters of star-shaped, pinkish-red flowers in late summer, which mature to a deeper rust-red as autumn progresses. These blooms are long-lasting and provide valuable late-season interest.

  • Extended Colour: The flowers persist from late summer into autumn, and even after they fade, the dried flower heads remain attractive through winter, adding structure to the garden.

  • Compact, Upright Growth: Growing to around 45-60 cm in height with a similar spread, 'Herbstfreude' has a neat, clumping habit, making it suitable for mixed borders, rockeries, or containers.

  • Succulent Foliage: The fleshy, blue-green leaves are drought tolerant and provide a beautiful contrast to the vibrant flower heads. The foliage also retains its colour well into autumn.

  • Full Sun: This sedum thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It is particularly well-suited to dry, sunny locations where other plants may struggle.

  • Drought Tolerant: Once established, 'Herbstfreude' is highly drought tolerant, making it an excellent choice for low-maintenance gardens and gravel gardens.

  • Versatile Use: Ideal for borders, rock gardens, and containers, this sedum also works beautifully in dry, sunny spots. It makes an excellent cut flower and can be used in dried flower arrangements.

  • Wildlife Friendly: The late-season blooms attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, helping to support garden biodiversity.

  • Low Maintenance: 'Herbstfreude' requires very little care, thriving in poor soils and tolerating dry conditions. Deadheading is not necessary, as the dried flowers provide winter interest. Cut back in early spring to make way for new growth.

  • Hardiness: Fully hardy in the UK (H6), 'Herbstfreude' can withstand cold winters and thrives in most garden conditions.

Sedum 'Herbstfreude' is a dependable and attractive choice for late-season colour and structure. Its drought tolerance, vibrant blooms, and ease of care make it a favourite for gardeners looking to extend their garden’s interest into autumn.

    The delivery of the shed was excellent and the driver placed it as close to my back gate as he could though it's not in his remit to do so. He was charming and helpful. Recommended.
