May 24, 2017A.This plant looks like sedum. If it is it can be transplanted. You can root it from a cutting or a leaf.

September 5, 2017Q.Sedum Stonecrop
I live in Tennessee, I have a big covered porch, with plant stands in the far corners. I am looking for something to put in those stands that will last the winter, I found the Sedum Stoncrop baskets today they are so pretty, and wondered if they would last the winter under cover? I guess if they are to be planted and they would come back but these would be in pots like I said. We have, in the past, had mild winters but have one of the hottest, driest summers in history, so hoping the winter will not be a dilly. Thank you for your help. Gigi

September 5, 2017A.Many sedum (aka stonecrop) species are quite winter hardy and shouldn't be bothered by the weather. However there are some species that are more sensitive to cold, so without knowing what particular sedum you have it is hard to tell for sure. Plants in pots do get colder during the winter than plants in the ground, but putting them under cover would definitely help. So I think there is an excellent chance the plants would last, but I can't guarantee it.

Newly potted sedums have turned yellow after rain. Too much water?

November 11, 2017A.You're probably correct that too much water is the culprit. Make sure the sedums are in well drained potting soil and that there are sufficient drainage holes on the bottos of the pots. Also consider moving them under shelter temporarily the next time it rains.

Certified ExpertA.These can be planted anywhere between 3 and 5 inches deep. It is best not to go any deeper than this.
Here is an article on their care once they are established: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/cacti-succulents/sedum/sedums-plants.htm

April 2, 2018A.Just as your sedum is coming up in the spring is a good time to divide the plant.
Lift the plant with a sharp shovel and make sure each section has a good amount of roots.Was this answer useful?00 - Asked by

South facing brick wall in UKQ.Sedum or similar
Is there a variety of sedum or similar, that can be just scattered between the crevices of a brick wall. I think they look so attractive and change the look of the top face of an ugly,bare brick wall.The seeds are so teeny and there is not a great deal of space to add compost. I notice that one side of the wall, along the top has seeded itself into the crevices. Perhaps by birds or wind. They are bright yellow flower heads on bright green tendrils and are spreading. I have a packet of Aubrieta, cheeky mix. What do you think of this idea? and is it possible?

Lewes, DE. 19958Q.Can sedum be successfully grown indoors?
I have a garden window from Renaissance Conservatories that projects 13” from the northwest face of the first floor (of two) of our house and would like to start a small sedum garden in it. Is that possible and do you have any suggestions for doing so successfully?
