Sedum spectabile 'Brillant' - 2026

Sedum spectabile 'Brillant', also known as Hylotelephium 'Brillant', is a clump-forming perennial valued for its fleshy, grey-green foliage and clusters of vibrant pink star-shaped flowers that bloom from late summer into early autumn. The upright stems rise above the foliage, creating a bold, textured display that adds colour and architectural interest to borders, gravel gardens, and container plantings. The long-lasting blooms gradually mature, providing extended seasonal appeal and visual interest, and the dried flower heads remain attractive into winter.

Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, this drought-tolerant plant performs well in poor or stony conditions. The nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, enhancing ecological value in the garden. Low-maintenance and hardy, Sedum spectabile 'Brillant' requires occasional trimming of spent flower heads to maintain neatness and encourage fresh growth. Its combination of striking foliage, vibrant flowers, and resilience makes it a versatile and rewarding choice for a variety of garden settings.
