  •   Sedum spurium 'Dragon's Blood' (Plug) is a hardy, drought tolerant creeping succulent native to the Caucasus region of Western Asia, where it thrives in rocky, sun-baked terrain. This low maintenance succulent belongs to the Crassulaceae family and has become a beloved hardy perennial groundcover for gardeners across a wide range of climates.

      Sedum spurium 'Dragon's Blood' (Plug) is instantly recognizable for its small, rounded, scallop-edged leaves that shift from green to a rich red burgundy as temperatures cool, making it a stunning seasonal color changer.

      Sedum spurium 'Dragon's Blood' (Plug) produces bright rose-red to deep crimson star-shaped flowers in mid to late summer, held in clusters just above the foliage for a vivid seasonal display.

    🌵 For Succulents
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
    Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
