Sedum, the Fascinating Stonecrop...in Bloom
by

Growing Sedum for many years, I was amazed to find that I didn't really know this plant at all. There are lots of different kinds and forms, ranging from tiny groundcovers perfect for miniature gardens, all the way up to large garden perennials.
The astonishing part is realizing that the flowers of these cold hardy succulents are much more intricate than I first thought. Taking close up pictures of them reveals their incredible beauty;

CC on Mar 11, 2014I am a crafter...by no means a gardener, other than a few house plants and my hanging baskets I make every summer. I know, quite impressive hugh? I really don't understand the whole zone thing. I have books that say what type of flowers can be planted and what zones, but the books don't tell me where the different zones are located. Can anyone please tell me if they know what zone pittsburgh, Pennsylvania would be considered. That would be western Pennsylvania. I'm sure this is probably a really stupid question for you seasoned gardeners, but I seriously cannot locate this information.

CC on Mar 11, 2014I just looked at the map that Drought Smart Plants posted, but still don't understand it. Does it mean Pittsburgh is Zone 6a &b?
