Sedum - Star Dust

Butterflies Zoom in on White Sedum

Sedum Star Dust, Sedum 'Star Dust', is a pale pink budded succulent sedum which produces large, flat, white flower-heads in late summer.

The large clear-white flower heads later develop a tinge of pink and persist until frost.

The sturdy thick grey green foliage matures to 24" tall with an equal spread.

Star Dust is a valuable late source of nectar for butterflies and bees too.

This sedum looks great planted in bold drifts towards the front of a sunny, well-drained border.

Seed heads also add some winter interest.

Choose an area where the plant will receive sun to partial shade. After the first killing frost, the stems should be cut back to an inch or two above soil line.

Quick Overview

Sedum Star Dust, Sedum 'Star Dust', is a pale pink budded succulent sedum with grey-green leaves, topped with large, flat, white flower-heads in late summer. Star Dust begins to produce green broccoli-like buds in mid-summer, which gradually open into large clear-white flower heads, later developing a tinge of pink. Star Dust is a valuable late source of nectar for butterflies and bees too. This sedum looks great planted in bold drifts towards the front of a sunny, well-drained border. Seed heads also add some winter interest. It is best to apply a thin layer of compost each spring, followed by a 2-inch layer of mulch to keep soil moist and control weeds. Star Dust needs extra watering during the summer if rainfall is less than 1 inch per week. Choose an area where the plant will receive sun to partial shade. After the first killing frost, the stems should be cut back to an inch or two above soil line.
