Broadleaf Stonecrop - Sedum spathulifolium ‘Cape Blanco’

The Sedum spathulifolium 'Cape Blanco' is a ground-hugging evergreen perennial that forms an attractive carpet of powdery, gray-green thick leaves that are occasionally purple-tinged. Whether planted in rock gardens, containers, green roofs, or as a groundcover, this cold-hardy succulent offers long-lasting color and texture throughout the year, making it a popular choice in both residential and commercial designs.  Native to the rocky slopes and coastal bluffs of Western North America, particularly in Oregon, California, and British Columbia, it has tight rosettes on creeping stems with spoon-shaped, fleshy leaves, which are coated with a powdery white wax (known as farina). This coating gives the foliage a striking silvery or icy-blue appearance, which intensifies under bright sunlight and cool temperatures.  The plant forms a spreading mat, typically grows up to 4 inches tall and 18 inches wide at maturity, making it ideal as a living mulch or groundcover in drought-tolerant landsc
