Low-growing plant, with a maximum height of 20cm and distinctive, succulent leaves in shades of green, red and pink.
Suitable for planting in compositions with other plants, for rock gardens and for pots and window boxes. Prefers positions with plenty of light and sun.
Sedums are plants that can survive even the most extreme conditions and need little care. It is no coincidence that they are known by the name 'stonecrop' which states, with a hint of exaggeration, that only stones need less care than sedums.
English
It is a low-growing bushy succulent, with a leaf mass that develops along its short stems.
It is an extremely delicate plant, in fact, you have to be very careful when transferring it to another pot or when touching it, since its leaves fall off very easily, if it happens so, do not worry, because stems and fallen leaves root easily and form a dense covering on the ground.
The leaves are short, thick and oval, its tips usually turn deep red in winter, if the plant is kept dry or when grown under the direct sun.
Bright yellow flowers with reddish shades sprout between the leaves in mid-spring.
Care
Most of the species prefer very bright places, however preferably sheltered from direct sunlight.
The lowest temperatures they resist vary a lot: some species can withstand temperatures down to 10 °C, others can resist temperatures even down to -10 °C!
Water moderately only when the soil is completely dry. In winter, suspend watering. When placed outdoors, many species survive very well with only rainwater.
A suitable soil for succulents is fine, they do not require special requirements (many species even grow in the cracks between the walls).
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
