Hi Melissa,
I really like this sedum too. I have several, which I bought a few
months ago from Cal Flora in Santa Rosa. I realize it's a little far
for you. I think I've seen it for sale elsewhere, but can't remember
where. (Emerisa's ? )
Sedum matrona does fine for me here in Napa, though
a couple that I have in a shadier area seem to have some sooty
(aphid?) residue.
