Sedum dasyphyllum 'Himalayan Skies': A must-have pop of color for frost-hardy, outdoor plantings that contrasts well with other plants. This cultivar has distinctive blue foliage on stems that creep, spread, and spill as they grow. It produces swathes of tiny white blooms in early summer.
Water sedums in the garden only during hot, dry weather. press your index finger into the top 2 inches of the soil. if it is dry at the bottom, soak each plant until the ground is damp 4 inches deep.
All plants require light for photosynthesis, the process within a plant that converts light, oxygen and water into carbohydrates (energy). Plants require this energy in order to grow, bloom and produce seed. Without adequate light, carbohydrates cannot be manufactured, the energy reserves are depleted and plants die. They need 12-14 hours of indirect sunlight.
Mix the recommended amount of liquid fertilizer and water in a watering can. Then simply pour the mix into the soil as if you're watering the plant.
Sedum are some of the hardiest succulents there are. Many sedum varieties can survive temps down to -10°F (USDA Zone 6) although they’d do best if kept in a frost free environment.
Choose a pot with drainage holes, which also ensures potting soil doesn't stay too wet after watering your houseplants. The excess can freely escape out the bottom of the container, allowing oxygen to make its way to plant roots.
