his glowing groundcover is maintenance-free and drought tolerant once established. From the SunSparkler Series, Sedum Wildfire was developed by plant breeder Chris Hansen and selected for its dazzling flower and foliage hues. Compact habit forms a solid mat of foliage.
Sedum don't require a lot of water and will develop their best colors if they get at least 6 hours of sunlight per day.
When grown outside it likes full sun or afternoon shade, when grown inside it needs bright light and some direct sun.
Like other Echeveria and Sedum plants, this Sunsparkler is easily propagated. This can be done through the removal of offsets produced by the parent plant, as well as by rooting leaves. Propagating succulent plants is not only fun, but a great way to plant new containers at little to no cost.
As with many succulent plants, especially in the echeveria family, this sedeveria requires periods of warm weather to thrive. Due to their intolerance for cold, gardeners without frost-free growing conditions should move plants indoors during winter; the Jet Beads plant cannot tolerate temperatures below 25 F. (-4 C.).
Succulents and cacti thrive in well draining, porous soils. Gravel or expanded shale can be added to the bottom of the container to help increase drainage. Never let the container sit in a saucer of water. If your container does not have a drainage hole, you will need to water less.
