This lovely little sedum really does best in part shade here, (and Seattle sunlight really isn't that scorching). Planted in full sun it struggles for a while and looks terrible, then eventually disappears. In part shade it will keep its golden color and develop into a lush, dense ground cover. It even grows in full (dry) shade, though the leaves will take on a more lime green hue. A great brightener for shady spots.

Seems quite happy in sun or shade with great color either way. Mine is in sandy soil around a pine tree, so it's pretty hot and dry. Spreads pretty well, too. Zone 8.

I love this plant but am not sure if it can thrive in zone 6. Our first winter was mild and it barely made it. I dug it up and placed it in a container. It did better. When the first heavy frost occured it died back. I have since placed it on our front porch where it is 10 degrees warmer than the outside. It has stablized and is coming back slowly.
I really do like this sedum so I will keep it in a container. Linda

Great looking ground cover and grows well here in southern California. Turns a lime green in shade, but a wonderful pale yellow in full sun.
