Touchdown Flame Sedum is a colorful low-mounding evergreen succulent with upright whorls of shiny foliage that emerges flame red and green, and deepens to red-brown and olive in summer. The colors intensify with more sun. Flat-topped clusters of creamy yellow star-shaped flowers bloom from late summer into fall. Grows best in full sun and dry to medium well-drained soils. Drought and heat tolerant once established.
