Abstract

The new and distinct cultivar of perennial Sedum plant named ‘Steel the Show’ is characterized by drought-tolerant, winter-hardy, dense, low, compact mounds of silvery blue-green foliage. The flowers open much later than most Sedum producing a rich, rosy-pink effect for about four weeks beginning in early fall. The new plant stays tightly compact and resists opening in the center later in the season. The new plant is useful for landscaping as a specimen plant, en masse or in a container.
