Taking care of your plants
Sedum
Exposure

Bright, indirect to direct sunlight; a sunny windowsill is ideal.

Watering frequency

Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings; water sparingly.

Feeding frequency

Feed every 2–3 months in spring and summer with a diluted cactus or succulent fertilizer.

Repoting

Repot every 2–3 years or when rootbound; handle carefully to avoid leaf drop.

Description

Sedum (Sedum morganianum), also known as Burro’s Tail, is a trailing succulent with plump, blue-green leaves that form cascading stems. Ideal for shelves or hanging baskets, it adds texture and charm to bright indoor spaces across the UK.

PLANTING

  • Use a gritty, free-draining cactus mix
  • Ensure the pot has drainage holes.

PLANT CARE

  • Avoid touching the leaves too much
  • Remove any shrivelled or dropped ones.

VERVE RECOMMENDS

  1. Place in bright light for healthy, compact growth.
  2. Avoid overwatering—leaves store moisture.
  3. Use a hanging pot for maximum trailing effect.
  4. Handle gently—leaves detach easily.
  5. Non-toxic but best kept out of reach due to delicate foliage.
