Sedum Hybrida Nova 'Cherry Fizz' is a compact, eye-catching perennial prized for its rich cherry-red flower clusters and attractive blue-green foliage. This hardy, drought-tolerant sedum brings long-lasting color and structure to borders, containers, and pollinator gardens, especially in late summer when many other plants begin to fade.
Dimensions: Grows to a height of 10–12 inches and spreads about 12–14 inches wide.
Sun Exposure: Thrives in full sun; requires at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for best color and flowering.
Water Requirements: Low water needs; prefers well-drained soil and is highly drought-tolerant once established.
Hardiness Zones: Hardy in USDA zones 3–9.
Bloom Time: Blooms from mid to late summer with vibrant cherry-red flower clusters that deepen in color as they mature.
Foliage: Features thick, succulent blue-green leaves that provide season-long interest.
Pruning: Minimal maintenance; cut back dead stems in late fall or early spring to promote healthy new growth.
How to Plant:
Location: Select a sunny site with excellent drainage, as sedums do not tolerate wet soil.
Soil Preparation: Improve heavy soils with sand or organic matter to enhance drainage.
Planting: Dig a hole equal to the root ball depth and twice its width. Place the plant so the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface.
Spacing: Space plants 12–14 inches apart to accommodate their mature spread.
Watering: Water well after planting, then allow soil to dry between waterings.
Fun Fact: Sedum Hybrida Nova 'Cherry Fizz' is part of a newer generation of sedums bred for compact growth and intense цвет coloration. Its nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to bees and butterflies, making it a great addition to pollinator-friendly landscapes.
