Sedum ‘Mocha Magic’
|
*** PLEASE NOTE ***
Must be booked by week 46 to receive vernalized material in spring of the following year. |
Trialed for eight years before its release, ‘Mocha Magic’ is a winner. The time is right for this most unusual sedum. The enormous flower clusters are indeed the same color as a frothy, fancy coffee drink at your favorite barista shop. Very upright, with clean foliage, down to the ground, even in rainy Oregon! Early summer blue foliage changes to gray blue and then to chocolate mocha color. Dark chocolate stems support milk chocolate foliage, topped with mocha foam. Yes, please!
