Growing Notes

Very easily propagated. This plant will often grow even if the stems are just set on the soil. One of our team takes handfuls of sedum and tosses them onto rocky slopes, where they grow fantastically.

Special Interest

The genus sedum is often called stonecrop, referring to these plants lithophytic tendency to grow in the cracks of rocks.
