SEDUM PURPLE CRUSH 1 GAL

Add a dynamic splash of rich, succulent color to your garden with 'Purple Crush' Sedum! This outstanding stonecrop variety boasts dense, distinctive blue-green foliage that deepens to an impressive purple hue, providing season-long interest. In late summer, clusters of vibrant pink flowers emerge, creating a striking contrast against the dark leaves and attracting beneficial pollinators like butterflies and bees. Forming a neat, mounded habit, 'Purple Crush' reaches a compact 12-15 inches tall and wide, making it perfect for front-of-border plantings, rock gardens, containers, or even mass plantings for a dramatic effect.

'Purple Crush' Sedum is a sun-lover, thriving in full to partial sun, which is ideal for our Arizona sunshine. It's incredibly drought-tolerant once established, requiring minimal watering, making it a wise choice for water-wise landscapes. You'll be pleased to know that sedums are generally considered deer and rabbit resistant, so you can enjoy its beauty without too much worry about unwelcome nibblers.

When planting your 'Purple Crush' Sedum, proper soil preparation is key to its success. Blend Watters Premium Mulch with your garden's native soil. This will improve drainage, which sedums absolutely need to prevent root rot, and also slowly release organic nutrients back into the soil. For an extra boost, incorporate Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food into the planting hole. This specially formulated food provides a balanced meal of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, ensuring strong root development, vigorous growth, and a spectacular display of its unique foliage and charming pink blooms. Water thoroughly after planting and then allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
