SUNSPARKLER® Blue Elf Stonecrop

SunSparkler® Blue Elf is a compact ×Sedoro groundcover with powder-blue foliage and dense clusters of hot-pink flowers. The low, spreading mound fits rock gardens, border edges, and containers where its blue leaves and late-season bloom can be seen up close. ## Garden Use The plant patent describes a low, mound-forming habit, pink flowers in late summer, powder-blue spring foliage that takes on a rose tint later in the season, and a mature spread wider than its height. Retail references give a height of about 3–4 inches and a spread of 12–18 inches; USDA Zones 4–9 are supported by the patent and current plant references. [The patent records the cultivar name, botanical classification, color, flowering, and mature habit](https://patents.google.com/patent/USPP27113P2/en). ## Growing Conditions Plant in full sun or light shade with sharp drainage. Average to dry soil suits this drought-tolerant stonecrop; avoid persistently wet conditions. It is useful as a groundcover, edging, or container accent. [Rare Roots summarizes its dimensions, zones, soil, and care](https://www.rareroots.com/products/sedum-blue-elf). ## Maintenance Leave the plant in place as it spreads, then cut back spent stems after flowering to tidy the mat. Divide only if you need to control or relocate its spread.
