Sedum Tile® Color Splash gives you an instant and effortless splash of color anywhere you choose. This ready-made 10" x 20" square "tile" is pre-planted with a variety of fleshy-leaved sedums. Expertly chosen for their ease of growth and compatibility, these perennial succulent plants create a beautiful blend of fanciful forms; ever-changing complimentary colors; and clusters of small, star-shaped blooms from late spring to midsummer. The fully rooted plants are grown on an environmentally friendly coconut fiber mat that you simply place on top of 2 to 3 inches of damp prepared soil, tamp down lightly, and water in thoroughly—So easy!

The Color Splash Sedum Tile is a naturally low-growing, multicolor mat that reaches a mature size of approximately 1 to 6 inches high with a 24- to 30-inch spread. Plant multiple tiles as a ground cover to fill in large garden beds and borders or to cover a rooftop. Cut tile into smaller pieces for use in a container garden or to beautify the empty spaces between stone pavers and in rock walls. Sedums, commonly called stonecrops, have a spreading to creeping habit, so 12 Color Splash Tiles planted 12 inches apart will fill in a 50 sq ft bed nicely within a couple of years.

Extremely easy to grow and low maintenance, sedums grow best in sunny locations but typically tolerate some light shade. They prefer dry to average, medium moist, freely draining soils. They grow easily in shallow, stoney soil and rarely need watering, so they are an excellent choice for xeriscapes, rock gardens, and hard-to-water areas. Sedum mats are a great replacement for mulch to keep weeds at bay, and sedums are deer resistant.
