Miles what varieties do you grow? What grow zone are you in? I really like hardy sedums too. Sedum Sarmentosum and Blue Spruce are two of my favorites.
I’m in zone 8A in Texas and they're all perennials here. I grow Blue Spruce, Munstead Dark Red, Cherry Tart, Vera Jameson, Autumn Joy, Lemon Coral, Rock ‘N Low Boogie Woogie and Dragon’s Blood. Love them 💕
They are all so beautiful I would love to know how I can get some of those succulent winter plants I am doing a collection from all of them have a wonderful and blessed day
I'm not sure if this is where the best to plant this. I've seen it under base of trees that's not too shady. You dig out a circle around a tree, and plant it between the roots. I have a topsoil base with a fine mulch covering everything. So far, it's doing great. A neighbor did this and it's been there several years. Gives the appearance of moss under a tree. I have a 50 year old sugar maple by the way in Virginia.
Nice! I can't make a blanket generalization about Sedum thriving under any tree in any climate with any soil, but we also have a very happy Sedum carpet under a moderately shady plum tree here in Northern California (zone 7). Sedum are some of the more flexible, forgiving succulents. You should give it a go! Annie
Yes! If you're regularly hitting 100F though, try to pick a spot with afternoon shade and/or give a deep morning water in the morning before especially hot days.
You can go to mountaincrestgardens.com/sedum-stonecrop/. Due to Covid-19, we're running a little low on Sedum at the moment, but you can still get a 7 variety plug tray with red and green. And we should have some more sedum get mature enough to sell soon.
Oh no! Depending on where in Michigan you are, you might be right at or beyond the extreme end of their cold tolerance. If you're on the cusp, one thing that can help is to keep them nice and dry before and during winter to prevent rot and improve their cold tolerance. Snow is great, just protect them from (liquid) water.
NOTE: This is a very difficult plant!! I’ve tried many times and they never last a season. I’ve certainly NEVER been successful transplanting them. Same thing with Jades. Succulents ARE NOT easy!! BE WARNED
Try growing a cutting in a plastic cup then transplanting to garden . Water every 3 days for about a month then Water when established every 2 weeks or more if it get very hot (40C or 100F) Sedum especially the tall ones are very low maintenance. You might have a rodent or bird problem . They dug my low growing ones up and either ate them or used it for nesting material.
I'm 45 seconds in, and this is the best plant video I've ever seen! 😂😂 Whoever made this, amazing job 👏 👌
Wow, thank you!
This video could be a hour long and I'd still watch it
Aw thanks!
@@Mountaincrestgardens 😊
I’m obsessed with Sedum and have at least 7 varieties. They’re all thriving and easy to care for. Great all inclusive video!
Thank you!

What a great video! I love sedums and I grow a lot of different ones in our garden.
Excellent video, and amazing voice narration!
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Which sedum tolerates the lowest zones?
Did not mention sedum names at all.
Muy lindas todas,he comprado con ustedes¡ súper lindas y rápido el envio.
Muchas Gracias!
Sedum = freedom

Ora essa!
They are all so beautiful I would love to know how I can get some of those succulent winter plants I am doing a collection from all of them have a wonderful and blessed day
You can go to mountaincrestgardens.com/hardy-succulents/ and all the succulents in that category can tolerate temperates below freezing.
Great video but as an option I just purchased some (dragon blood) at Home Depot.
Thank you!!
perfect for fairy gardens
It's true!

Thanks 👍🥰
Grows great in zone 7 in nirth carolina
Zone 7. North Carina. Grows well in sun and half shade. No water needed. No fertizers.
Yes! Gotta love a low/no maintenance plant!
Que lindas suculentas 💞💞
Muchas gracias!
@@Mountaincrestgardens the best answer would be: Obrigada!
The praise was written in Portuguese, not Spanish.
They do ok in the full Alabama sun? Zone 8 full sun?
Yes! If you're regularly hitting 100F though, try to pick a spot with afternoon shade and/or give a deep morning water in the morning before especially hot days.
Can it be used as ground cover on a sunny slope ?
Absolutely! That's a great place for Sedum
How do I get Hardy Sedum plants in red and green for outside have a blessed day

I have a few of the hardy sedums. They have survived 2 Michigan winters.
Are these plants resident to spider mites?
Yes!
Are these invasive? I am concerned that it doesn't take over my lawn.
They're not invasive. Some varieties like Sedum spurium and Sedum album can spread quickly, but they also have shallow roots and are easy to remove.
The best thing that could happen to your lawn.
The HEN'S AND CHICK always die.. IDK why . I'm in Michigan. They don't tolerate the cold. ,,

Might just be the kind you got. I've had sedums spread by just ranking leafs out from them
