Autumn Delight Stonecrop (Sedum 'Autumn Delight') is a compact, succulent perennial valued for its vibrant foliage and late-season bloom time, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, container plantings, and ground cover applications. Its thick, rounded leaves emerge bright green in spring and transition to deep burgundy-red tones in autumn, complemented by clusters of yellow flowers in late summer/early fall. Requiring little maintenance, Autumn Delight Stonecrop thrives in poor, dry soils and full sun, only needing occasional deadheading of spent flowers and division of overcrowded clumps every 2-3 years in spring, while avoiding excessive moisture to prevent rot, providing a dynamic and drought-tolerant addition to a variety of landscape settings.
