Which type of sedum available in Pakistan.please tell me with pic if possible
.

[Tahir Khan]

Several types are available..what type do you need ?

[imranarshad263]

I want to need for broader use

[Tahir Khan]

Sedums wont survive the heat of Pakistan if grown as a border plant.

If you really want to use them as hedging plants try 'sedum nussbaumerianum' they can tolerate much heat

[Tahir Khan]

I would personally recommend that you plant 'Euphorbia milii' Thai hybrids for borders, no fuss plant once established and will flower all year if your area is frost free.

Thanks sir.infact in winter I use nanthra broader for my lawn edging in a circle and inside circle I use alyssum.it makes my lawn fantastic but in summer nanthra is good and more green but alyssum life cycle almost complete so I will missing inner broader beauty so please tell me about this type of broader with small height I can use in summer

Though Sedum germinates easily from seeds but is susceptible to humidity prevalent in monsoon season and suffers from summer heat. The more heat tolerant Sedum varieties can be given a try.

Why don't you consider growing our local Kalanchoe available in shades of orange & red and also more heat tolerant.

Can you plz name a few heat tolerant sedum varieties? And can we get sedum seeds from Pakistan ?

Ms Rabia, very few sedums are heat tolerant, they need semi-shaded spot to thrive. You can try 'sedum nussbaumerianum' it is one of the most heat tolerant variety i have grown yet. All my sedums died one by one but this one is still going good.

Seeds are not available in Pakistan, however, can be bought from foreign seed vendors.

Sedums available in Pakistan the ones i can identify with name are:

sedum rubrotinctum

sedum nussbaumerianum

sedum hispanicum var. minus
