Sedum Furfuraceum

Sedum Furfuraceum is a low-growing succulent native to the Mexican states of San Luis Potosí and Guanajuato. It features dark green, egg-shaped leaves covered with scurfy, whitish scales. These leaves are arranged in tight whorls of five around the plant’s prostrate to ascending, sparsely branching stems. Growing up to 6 inches tall, this plant can spread up to 1 foot wide or more. When exposed to bright light, the leaves can develop a striking reddish-purple hue, while the lower leaves turn reddish-orange before eventually dropping off. This variety is well-suited for rock gardens, containers, or ground cover, thriving in well-draining soil and bright, indirect light.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROOTING CUTTINGS
Insert the cutting into the soil to a depth of 0.5" to 1". Water the plant sparingly when the soil is dry. Roots should form within two weeks. Keep the plant in bright shade during the rooting period. To avoid leaf burn, gradually acclimate the plant to outdoor conditions or full sun.
