Sedums

The former owners must have loved sedums--clumps of these hardy plants are all over the yard. Not my favorite, but I am learning to appreciate their good qualities. Not the least of which is their tolerance of the crummy soil here.

This is the beginning of the bloom. As we move into fall, the tufts will turn pink, then darken to crimson as the season progresses. Even into winter, when the tufts go brown, the sedums still look interesting.
