| Sedum acre | 
Our Fire Hydrant Garden is glowing with a carpet of yellow flowers of 
Sedum acre.  One can see why this is commonly called Goldmoss.  This plant is a vigorous groundcover that tolerates hot, dry conditions and poor soil.  After showing its star-shaped masses of flowers in May/June it remains an evergreen plant for the rest of the year.  It is easily propagated by breaking off a piece and sticking it in the ground!  The key to success with 
Sedum is well-drained soil.
