Sedum 'Annies White'

A recent introduction by us is this sedum from my mothers garden, with white flowers, which is an unusual colour in the world of  sedums! As with other sedums, easy to grow in full sun position in most soil types. Rarely but occasionally these can produce a pale pink sport, which should be removed with a sharp knife at the crown at the time of flowering.
