    Sedum are so easy. I break off stems in my yard before the fall and make a hole in the soil and spread them all over my slope. Fast, cheap, and beautiful! Propagation is the 💣! Another great video!!

    I love how you tell us everything, but never waste a word or ramble! "Keep your stinkin' fingers out of the way!" Your videos are truly the best, and that accent is just a killer! Thank you for sharing!

    One of my neighbors just up the road has a lot of Sedum and she said I can have as much as I want. Looks like it's time to take her up with the offer. Enjoyed the video!!!

    I've had a lot of success starting the sedum leaves in shallow trays with water. I use pie pans and put the base of the leaf in the water, leaving the top of the leaf out of the water. Same is true rooting the leaves in damp medium - just keep it moist.

    $4.00 becomes $4,000 over time. Great video!

    Love Autumn joy sedum. Hardy, low maintenance plant. Love how the flower transitions from a light pink to brilliant burnt red. Also attracts LOTS of bees. At least in my area.

      I could not believe the sheer number of bumble bees, honey bees, the array of butterflies, & different kinds of wasps that have been all over mine this summer!! I’m propagating as many as I can for next year!!

    Interesting to see the difference in growth time between the different methods. I also propagate in water. BTW it's not just sedum leaves but almost all succulents can propogate with leaves. I often just throw them on a tray of gravel and leave them alone till the babies show on each leaf.

    I have 3 of these I got on clearance rack 3 years ago and they are beautiful. I’m now trying to propagate by leaves, cuttings in water and soil and just a whole stem in the ground. I’m excited

    Neon sedum is another variety with a very bight and intense 'neon' pink color

    • @savvydirtfarmer
      @savvydirtfarmer  Рік тому +1

      yes! I had some this Spring and when I do, the Autumn Joy don't sell and the neon's do. I didn't keep any to propagate... should have.

  • @beth6085

    Curious to see how the leaf cuttings rooted on the SEDUM in the video you did a few months ago. How'd they root?

    • @savvydirtfarmer
      @savvydirtfarmer  Рік тому +4

      Some just started rooting before they ffroze. We'll see in Spring what's going on with them.

    "Keep your stinking fingers out of the way"! LOL.I was a first time pruner of a dwarf maple tree years ago and chopped my pinky 3/4 of the way through with brand new snippers. UGH!

    I dig one up trying to get some ditch lilies out of the area from taking over the Sedum. I set the plant in a pot, took cutting and put them in the same pot. I also set the leaves in the pot. I can see I cut the leaves wrong. It's ok. There's more to cut and try. I am wondering if I can just set the pot close to the other Sedum and leave it there all winter. I'm in middle Tennessee 6b.

    What do you use as a protection for this kind of plant over the winter?

    • @savvydirtfarmer
      @savvydirtfarmer  Рік тому +1

      These sedum will just sit out in the open in their pots all winter with no protection at all... most plants will do that as well. NOT ALL plants.

    Roughly how much woody material do you put in your potting mix?

    • @savvydirtfarmer
      @savvydirtfarmer  Рік тому +4

      Probably 60-40, pine bark to hardwood bark

    • @mariesuen930
      @mariesuen930 6 місяців тому +1

      Very high when done at the right time… fresh, tender leaves, good shade and moisture

    2 weeks ago i rooted some stems in water! Lots of roots so now need to be planted up. Do i remove the tips to stop early flowering and make the plants bushier?

    • @savvydirtfarmer
      @savvydirtfarmer  6 місяців тому +1

      Probably a good idea. I don't root plants in water, so I don't know for sure.

    New sedum gardener here. Should I be worried about the holes in the leaves some kind of bug has made??
    I could not see ANY bugs at all but the leaves have been chewed on & I noticed some leaves in video with same bug holes chewed thru & around edges.

    • @savvydirtfarmer
      @savvydirtfarmer  3 місяці тому

      They are all about to lose their leaves and die back to the ground for winter. You'll see them again next Spring. No worries.
