Late fall sedums

This matrona sedum struggled early on, but has been in its heyday for the last few years.

It was beautiful in the late afternoon light today.  The iPhone didn't capture it appropriately, but perhaps enough.  The dried, senesced flowering stalks were luminous, and rusty brown, in the waning light.

A mix of sedums

Sedums are wonderfully versatile plants.  They're drought-tolerant, diverse in their textures and colors, and many are hardy over winter, in our Zone 7 mountain basin.

A nearby short-term rental house has a new planting that is really quite nice.

These looked luminous on a rainy morning.
