  • Striking contrast: blood-red flower clusters pop against deep purple, nearly black foliage.
  • Compact and sturdy habit—shorter and more upright than many tall sedums, great for tidy borders.
  • Waterwise performer for full sun: perfect for rock gardens, dry borders, and container “thriller” moments.
  • Cold-climate reliable: succulent foliage dies back in winter and re-emerges fresh in early spring.

Mojave Jewels Ruby Sedum (Sedum ‘Ruby’) delivers bold, high-contrast color with deep purple-black foliage topped by dense, blood-red flower clusters in summer. This moderate-growing, sturdier form stays compact and upright, making it an easy way to add dramatic foliage color and pollinator-friendly blooms to sunny borders, rock gardens, and low-water landscapes. Give it full sun and lean, fast-draining soil, allow the soil to dry between waterings, and you’ll be rewarded with a low-maintenance, heat-tough sedum that looks great in the ground or in containers from spring through bloom season.


Plant Description

A compact, upright sedum with deep purple, almost black foliage and dense clusters of rich red flowers that create dramatic contrast in sunny garden beds and containers.

Flowers & Bloom Time

Dense clusters of blood-red flowers bloom in summer, providing a bold focal point and late-season color in waterwise plantings.

Foliage & Color

Deep purple to near-black foliage adds long-lasting drama and makes surrounding greens and bright blooms appear even more vibrant.

Habit & Size

Moderate growing; forms a sturdy clump about 12–15 inches tall and 18–20 inches wide—ideal for borders, rock gardens, and patio containers.

Sun & Exposure

Full sun is best for strongest stems, richest foliage color, and the most abundant flowering.

Watering

Allow soil to dry between waterings. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots; once established, reduce frequency and avoid overly wet conditions.

Soil & Drainage

Performs best in lean, very well-drained soil. Gravel mulch is beneficial to keep crowns dry and improve overall vigor.

Cold-Climate Behavior

In cold winter regions, the succulent top growth dies back to the ground, then re-emerges in early spring with fresh new foliage.

Fertilizing

Fertilize lightly in spring to support healthy growth while keeping the plant compact and sturdy.

Pruning & Cleanup

Clip spent flowers to encourage a tidy look and promote continued bloom. Remove old, faded foliage before new leaves emerge for a clean seasonal reset.

Landscape Uses

Excellent for waterwise borders, rock gardens, and containers. Use in small drifts for maximum color impact or as a dark-leafed contrast plant among silver and chartreuse foliage.

Pollinators & Garden Benefits

Attracts pollinators and adds mid-to-late season garden activity with showy blooms and easy-care performance.
