Sedum telephium 'Lajos' | Autumn Charm Sedum (2)

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Sedum telephium ‘Lajos’ features fleshy, gray-green leaves edged with creamy yellow margins that often lighten toward near-white as the season progresses. In late summer to early fall, dense clusters of buds open into rounded heads of numerous tiny star-shaped, soft pink blossoms that can deepen to richer tones as bloom season advances.

In garden settings, ‘Lajos’ is well suited to borders, mixed perennial beds, rock gardens, and container plantings where its colorful leaves and prolonged floral display enrich late-season interest. The mounded habit makes it effective in mass plantings and as a cut flower, drawing pollinators while contributing texture and garden structure through summer and into fall.
