Thanks Linda.... I do love the autumn charm as well... Have you seen Sedum Neon? The foliage is pretty plain but the flower color is awesome...

netcub - do you have Neon in flower? Mine is just starting to show color.

I do grow Neon and it is one of my favorites. The color and plant habit are so nice. I've added a few more of the tall sedums in the last two years - Pink Chablis, Chocolate Drop, and Jaws are blooming for the first time right now. I picked up Stardust just this year in a trade and look forward to seeing it next year.

But the color of your Raspberry Truffle is just plain outstanding. I may have to spring for one of those. So glad you posted that picture to share with all of us!

Cheryl. My Neon is just starting to bloom.... Its sort of in a half shade/half sun spot... I've got 3 more in full sun, and they haven't bloomed yet... I love the Chocolate Drop! When I was searching for Jaws, I found Sedum 'Shepherd's Joy' which looks really nice!

Linda, I think Ill go back and pick up another Raspberry Truffle tomorrow... I only buy plants in 1's or 3's so I might need 2 more! ;)

Ill post another photo tomorrow...

All you have to do is break two stalks off and stick them in the ground. They will root in a matter of days.

I need to get out more. Love that raspberry truffle, and am seeing mention on the forum of other sedums that I knew nothing about.

I do have Neon." Pretty in pink" for sure. Not as strong a grower as some sedums, but I do like her. Here she is from last year. It is the best pic I could find.

Looks Nice!

RE: Sedum Raspberry Truffle

LOL, gazania! I will go with you when you go out because obviously I need to get out more as well! Same here - reading about a lot of sedums I never heard of just in this thread alone. I tend to have more groundcover sedums, but may look into these taller varieties as I am going to be planning a "drier" bed for my irises.

Thanks, netcub, for posting this. Boy, bet this would look great next to some kind of chartreuse-ey plant....
