Sedum ternatum (Native)

Habitat: damp rocks, undisturbed woodland; rocky banks, cliffs, woods

Wildlife value: Attracts butterflies

Notes: The stems will creep along the ground or over rocks, forming dense mats. The stems usually send up a single flowering branch, 4 to 8 inches high, and several shorter, leafier, non-flowering branches. Stems break away and die in winter, leaving newly rooted plants separated from the mother plant. The leaves tend to fall off easily; however, the fallen leaves can be used to propagate new plants.
