Description
Sedum spectabile 'Yellow Xenox' is a truly fabulous new variety of autumn stonecrop. It is a succulent perennial with fleshy roots, producing large flat inflorescences in a creamy yellow-pink colour above dense green-purple foliage. It flowers from late summer to autumn and until the first frost. It is a low-maintenance plant, suitable for dry soils, that adds a lot of charm to the late season.
Sedums belong to the Crassulaceae family. 'Yellow Xenox' is one of the many cultivars derived from Sedum spectabile, native to China and Korea. It forms compact, upright clumps, reaching 40cm (16in) in height and spreading up to 50cm (20in), with a relatively slow growth rate. The flowering occurs from September and stops with the first frost. The inflorescences, in flat and dense terminal cymes, reach 15cm (6in) in diameter. The tiny flowers emerge as pink buds and then open into creamy yellow and old pink. They form false umbels that are intensely nectar-rich and honey-bearing, attracting butterflies. The herbaceous stems emerge from the deciduous, fleshy, wavy, glaucous purple-green foliage, which is as attractive as the flowers. The leaves measure 8cm (3in) in length, and are flat and ovate, with dentate margins on the upper half.
A godsend for gardens with thin soil, Sedum spectabile is primarily a drought-tolerant plant. Pair it with grasses and grey-foliaged plants that often tolerate these challenging conditions. You can create an unforgettable scene by combining it with asters or fuchsias. This magnificent sedum has great potential for container gardening. It is also an excellent flower for drying or for bouquets.

Planting and care
Plant Sedum 'Yellow Xenox' in ordinary soil, even very dry and chalky. It must be well-drained to protect the roots from cold winter moisture. It tolerates clay soils in regions with dry winters. Plant it in full sun. This plant is hardy once established. Sedum still needs some moisture during its growing season. For potted plants, provide a layer of gravel for drainage. Cut back the clump in winter when it is dry.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
