{"product_id":"night-embers-autumn-stonecrop-bare-root-plant","title":"Night Embers Autumn Stonecrop - Bare Root Plant","description":"\u003cp\u003eNight Embers grows strictly upright with dark black-purple, semi-glossy leaves, a sleek vase shape that fits into tight spaces. In late summer to early fall, small clusters of light mauve-pink flowers open on deep red stems, a soft accent against the dark foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe flowers form on the upper half of the stems, and the plant stays upright without flopping. Its narrow base leaves room for shorter companions at its feet. Very drought tolerant and avoided by rabbits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThick, fleshy, oval leaves 2 to 3 inches long in dark black-purple with a semi-glossy finish, arranged along stiff, deep red stems. Small, loose clusters of tiny star-shaped flowers in light mauve pink open at the tops of the stems and along the upper half. The plant is strictly upright and vase-shaped, narrow at the base and wider at the top, 24 to 26 inches tall and wide. At peak it looks like a dark vase of stems topped with pale pink flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUpright sedum loves the same full sun and lean, well-drained soil as lavender, and its broad, fleshy leaves and late summer flower heads add contrast in texture and carry color after the lavender harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun in average to poor, well-drained soil; it is very drought tolerant once established and rots in wet, heavy ground. Hardy in zones 3-9; leave the stems standing for winter interest and cut them back in early spring as new growth appears. Avoid rich soil, which makes stems flop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hylotelephium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light mauve pink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black-purple, semi-glossy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Strictly upright, vase-shaped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24–26 in tall × 24–26 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late-August\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-September\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long Blooming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderately resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDormant bare-root plant, sold in boxes of 25 per variety (order in multiples of 25).
