Sedum ' Aquarel' belongs to the broad Sedum genus in the Crassulaceae, a group found mainly across the Northern Hemisphere and extending into parts of Africa and South America. Members of the genus are leaf succulents and show a wide variety of forms — from short, creeping herbs to more substantial shrubby types — which means different cultivars suit different positions. The leaves of Sedum store water, so individual plants endure spells without rain more readily than species without succulent foliage. Flowers in the genus usually have five petals and typically about twice as many stamens; for Sedum ' Aquarel' the flowering season runs from June to September. When siting the plant, bear in mind its growth habit: a creeping form will behave very differently from a taller, semi-woody form. Choose the position to match the cultivar's habit and check the plant label for its specific habit before planting. For Sedum ' Aquarel', expect the main display to arrive between June and September and leave flowering stems in place until the season's blooms have finished so you do not remove developing seedheads or late flowers.
