PanAmerican Seed is thrilled that our foray into seed-raised Sedum has been recognized coast-to-coast by trial sites. Congratulations to the PanAmerican Seed team on accepting a 2026 All-America Selections National Award. The award recognizes the new Sedum spectabile Spectacular – a seed-grown stonecrop with performance that rivals traditionally vegetative varieties.
Sedum Spectacular has a more compact habit and sturdy flower clusters, which means less breakage and no “flop” in garden designs. The medium-sized flower clusters sit atop bright chartreuse-green foliage that light up patios and landscapes. Its bloom time is late-summer through autumn and is hardy to USDA zone 3b.
Some of the AAS judges’ comments during trial evaluations include:
- “Plants were sturdy and did not flop.”
- “Uniform height and spread, light green foliage. Leaves have rounded tips. Flowers are light pink clusters.”
- “This variety performed great! A seed variety compared to a vegetative variety.”
- “Good, mounded habit, good flower coverage.”
PanAmerican Seed is proud to continue our efforts to offer programmable and flexible seed alternatives to high-demand annual and perennial classes. Seed for Sedum Spectacular is available for early sales. Contact your preferred distributor to place an order today.
