Sedum 'Back In Black'
Choose Back in Black Stonecrop for hot, dry beds where dark foliage needs to carry the planting before late flowers arrive; the tradeoff is that it will not solve wet-soil problems.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The dark foliage gives it real presence before bloom, especially when repeated in a bed. |
| Growth Rate | A | It is a fast grower for filling a dry perennial space without pampering. |
| Maintenance | A- | Once established, it mainly needs old stems cut back and protection from overwatering. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer usually pass this by, since the foliage deters browsing, though no plant is completely immune where pressure is severe. |
| Small Space Fit | B+ | The compact, bushy habit fits smaller beds, though it still needs breathing room. |
At PGNE, we'd typically use this near lighter foliage, gravel, or stonework so the dark leaves read clearly. Keep it away from soggy soil and taller plants that will hide it.
| Mature Height | 1.5 ft |
|---|---|
| Mature Width | 2 ft |
| Hardiness Zones | 3a-9b |
| Spacing | 2 ft |
| Sun | Full Sun to Part Shade |
| Moisture | Dry to average |
| Growth Habit | Low, mounding, mat-forming |
Yes, dry to average soil is where it makes the most sense.
It has deer resistance, so we’d rate it safer than many flowering perennials, not immune.
Use groups if you want the dark foliage to show from a distance.

They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
