Sedum telephium ‘Matrona’

 

This large upright stonecrop has large, glaucous blue foliage tinged with a purple flush, especially in full sun and dry soils. The stems are rich marron in colour and hold large pink flower clusters in late summe and fall. Between foliage and flowers this is a bold striking specimen nearly year-round. Its foliage and flowers harmonize well with pinks, blues, lavenders and creams of nearby plants in the garden.
