Deep, dark foliage and late-season flower color make Sedum × 'Rock 'N Grow® 'Midnight Velvet' an easy way to add contrast to borders and mixed beds. In spring, you will see rich purple leaves emerge and quickly form a neat, domed plant that stays attractive through the growing season. By late summer into fall, clusters of mauve buds open to rosy-red flowers, giving you fresh color when many perennials are winding down.

Give your plant a spot with well-drained soil and plenty of sun for the best foliage color. Full sun is ideal, but it will also perform in part shade, especially where afternoons are hot. Once established, this stonecrop handles dry spells well, making it a good fit for low-fuss gardens, rock garden-style plantings, and hot, sunny edges where other perennials can struggle.

Mature size is typically in the 12-24 inch tall range, with a spreading habit that fills in nicely without looking messy. Use it to repeat dark foliage through the landscape, then let the late-season blooms tie into autumn color themes. The flowers are also useful for cutting, and the plant provides seasonal interest even after bloom as the heads dry and hold form.

For best results, avoid heavy, constantly wet soil. Water to establish, then let the soil dry between waterings. Leave stems standing through winter if you want additional texture, then cut back in early spring before new growth starts.
