White Diamond Sedum Pachyclados

Sedum ‘White Diamond’ forms tight, jewel-like rosettes of small, fleshy leaves in a silvery-green to blue-green tone. The leaves are rounded and slightly cupped, creating a neat, compact appearance that clusters and clumps over time.

It produces white star-shaped flowers in summer, appearing in small but plentiful clusters across the rosettes. A slight drop in nighttime temperatures encourages more prolific blooming, so moving it outdoors in late summer or autumn coaxes out a fuller floral display.

It grows well in a sunny windowsill, on a wind-exposed balcony, or planted in the garden for summer and beyond. It tolerates drafty indoor spaces and dry heated air, and can stay outdoors well into autumn. You can leave it up to ten days without water. This plant is pet-friendly and grows well in 2″ or 4″ pots, rock gardens, or mixed with other sedums in container arrangements.

Water it thoroughly every 10-14 days in summer, reducing to once every 3-4 weeks in winter when growth slows.

Sedum ‘White Diamond’ does best in a well-draining succulent or cactus mix blended with perlite or gritty sand to prevent root rot.

It handles temperatures from around 20F to 80F, showing strong frost tolerance for a compact sedum.

Sedum ‘White Diamond’ is a slow to moderate grower that needs only light, balanced fertilizer once in spring to stay healthy and compact.

It is hardy in USDA zones 5 through 9, tolerating frost down to approximately -20F at the lower end of that range. It grows outdoors year-round across Texas, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. It grows well in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana, as well as in Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, Arizona, New Mexico, and much of California.
