Unlike most succulents, many stonecrops are extremely tolerant of cold weather and look great from spring through fall and into winter. Some are hardy in temperatures as low as minus-45 degrees Fahrenheit, even when exposed in pots during the winter. Stonecrops can look fantastic as a single plant in a mixed container.
In this regard, is sedum frost hardy?
Sedums with fine, small leaves are generally more cold-hardy and less heat-tolerant than those with large leaves. Also freeze-tolerant, the 4-inch-tall lance-leaf stonecrop (Sedum lanceolatum) is hardy in USDA zones 4 through 9. It has yellow flowers, and its needlelike, gray-green leaves can turn red in winter.
Similarly one may ask, can sedum survive winter?
Most varieties thrive in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 3 through 9 and are tolerant of cold, heat and dry soil. In colder climates, tall sedum dies back in winter and returns in spring.
When & Where to Plant Sedum Light: Sedum (or 'stone crop flower') do best in full to part sun. While taller hybrids need full sun to flower their best, creeping types will grow fine in part shade. Soil: Sedums like a very well-drained soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH.
