Description
Sedum 'Blue Pearl' is a hybrid stonecrop with beautiful purple foliage and subtle bluish highlights. Perfect as a border plant or in a rock garden, it forms an upright clump, adorned with dark pink flowers in late summer and autumn. It also thrives in pots. It requires well-drained, moist to dry soil, in full sun.
'Blue Pearl' belongs to the SunSparkler hybrid series, which are recent American selections with amazing foliage. Sedums, or stonecrops, belong to the Crassulaceae family, which includes numerous species of drought-tolerant succulent plants. There are many allies for the garden, with varied shapes and colours. 'Blue Pearl' is a hybrid of Sedum telephium (now known as Hylotelephium telephium), a tall species with sturdy upright stems and ovate leaves with toothed margins. It is found in dry forest edges, on rocks, and banks.
There are already hybrid varieties with purple foliage, but the 'Blue Pearl' variety stands out with its prominent bluish-green shade on the young leaves, as well as at the base and on the undersides of older leaves. The contrast with the purple-red is striking and very pleasant. Between August and October, it produces dark pink flower spikes with a nearly black stem, creating a striking effect. The overall growth forms an upright clump of about 40cm (16in) in all directions.
Place Sedum 'Blue Pearl' in full sun or very light shade (otherwise its stems will flop). Plant it in well-drained soil that is not too poor or acidic. It can also be easily grown in pots, taking care not to overwater and selecting a substrate that does not retain too much moisture. In winter, the leaves disappear, and you can trim the dry stems at the end of the season.
In a rock garden or dry border, you can pair it with Sedum 'Angelina' as ground cover for a refreshing contrast, or why not combine it with other purple-leaved sedums to create a gradient by playing with shades ('Jose Aubergine', 'Purple Emperor', 'Orange Xenox'). It will also make a good companion for other rock garden plants like Alyssum montanum 'Berggold', Teucrium lucidrys, thymes, and the grasses Koeleria glauca or Festuca 'Elijah Blue'.

Planting and care
Sedums can be planted in spring or autumn in dry, even rocky, and sunny soil. They also tolerate heavy or slightly chalky substrates. However, add gravel to the planting hole if your soil is moist or may retain some moisture in winter. Take the same precautions if you want to place it in a container.
Prune the inflorescences at the end of flowering or in early spring if you prefer to keep the dried flowers on the stems for winter decoration. Beware of gastropods that attack the leaves. Divide the stump if the centre starts to thin out. This is usually required every 3-4 years, depending on its development.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
