A really tall sedum
None of those are Sedum.
They are all deciduous perennials not shrubs.
None of them have the presence of a Sedum.

Achillea x 'Coronation Gold' gets 24-36" tall. Has golden yellow flowers
from late spring to summer with gray-green foliage. It's commonly known
as
Yarrow. Likes full sun (drought tolerant) and is good in zones 2-8.
Agastache x 'Blue Fortune' gets 40" tall. Blue-lavender flowers with
licorice scented leaves bloom from early spring throughout the summer.
'Tutti Frutti' gets 3-4' tall and has tubular pink flowers from mid-summer
to frost. It has fragrant foliage that smells like tutti frutti. Both
are
good in zone 6-9 in full sun.
Baptisia australis "false indigo" - mid to late spring bloomer. Flowers
are
blue and mature fruit is black. Gets 36" tall and is good in zones 3-10
with full to part sun.
Baptisia pendula "white false indigo" has clusters of white pea like
flowers
that grow to 40" tall. Zone 3-10.
These are just a few perennials that could be used in front of the
grasses.
Don't forget Black Eyed Susans, Purple Coneflowers (Echinacea) and Russian
Sage. Do a google on the plants listed and you can see what they look
like.
Good luck,
Penny

Does any one know of a tall sedum?
Not Autumn Joy or kin tall (for me around 24" max), but a true back of
the
border sedum.
Or lacking a true sedum, something with the presence of a sedum that I
could
use near my tall (6 foot plus) grasses.
Thanks all,
Cheryl
