Sedum NOVA® ‘Cherry Fizz’
*** PLEASE NOTE ***
Must be booked by week 46 to receive vernalized material in spring of the following year. |
No other Sedum has garnered this much attention from visitors quite like this one. ‘Cherry Fizz’ has a very large, very upright habit, and an incredible floral display for months in a sunny garden. Deep bronze colored foliage is a great foil for the enormous cherry pink flower heads, with extended interest from colorful burgundy seed heads. Big, beefy perennials are back!
