About Annual Stonecrop
Plants in the Sedum genus are super diverse, and are native to regions all over the world. Horticulturalists have bred them to create even more variietes that come in all manner of shapes and colors! Their succulent leaves help store water, and they are incredibly easy to propagate. Just gently pop off one of the leaves and with water and sunlight it will grow into a whole new plant. 🪴

How to fertilize Annual Stonecrop

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Annual Stonecrop after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Hey succulent peeps! Found this stowaway in my purse after roaming a nursery for succulents (oops). Greg ID'd as annual stonecrop, is this right? And any tips on propagating? I can never seem to get propagating right.

Hi everyone! I’ve got my plant here, but she’s looking dried out at the base of her stems. Am I over watering? Thank you! #Sedum

Wooo! (I totally forgot about freshleaf friday ^^') Anyway- My succs are much happier with me. Still killing off leaves, but also growing new ones and new roots. And Magpie's new leaf is looking glorious so far! Should I be concerned with the direction and how close it's growing to the other leaf? I even potted my goldfish plant after accidentally letting algae grow in the water I was using to help it grow roots 😅 I don't check for one day and suddenly algae is everywhere I look. I'm letting the tradescantia cutting callous before trying again for roots •~• I've had no luck so far with the method of not letting it callous over before sticking in water. Keep in mind I don't have the budget to buy plant products (or anything really) at the moment I also finally got a piece of my dead jellybean to grow roots ^v^ I potted it cuz that also grew algae in the water. My chunky boi Flareblitz just keeps popping out new growth and is feeling nice and firm. #freshleaffriday #succulentsquad #thaiconstellation #thaiconstellationmonstera #monstera #newgrowth #sedum #jellybeanplant #plantsmakepeoplehappy #goldfishplant #tradescantia #aloe

I’ve always had bad luck with Golden Sedums. I thought that had changed when my 3rd attempt started showing positive signs. Alas this upward streak was not meant for long - I can see it infested with those pesky mealy bugs. Just sprayed some mealy bug specific insecticide and moved it to a more bright and airy location. Fingers crossed!

What’s happening to my #Sedum ? Hey, guys! My sedum has this nasty white/brown stuff on it. I thought it was just dirt at first, but it’s spread across pretty much all the leaves now. To me it looks like some sort of fungus, but I’m not sure. Does anyone know what’s happening, and if so, how do I fix it? #helpneeded #PlantClinic

Happy #WhatTheSuccWednesday everyone! 🌿 we have almost made it through the week! Here’s what I have for this weeks #WhatTheSucc post… 1. Sedum arrangement I put together today. 3 different types of sedum included. 2. A sempervivum I planted in my rock garden, they are hardy where I live and will come back next spring! 3. Delosperma I also planted in my rock garden. I love how the flowers open and close through the day! This is a great plant to add for color. It’s super easy to take care of. 4. The bottom level of my succulent shelf 5. My new snake plant! I got it planted in my new pot, this weekend😍 if anyone knows the exact name please comment below! #SucculentSquad #HappyPlants #SucculentLove #Succulents #Succulent #SnakePlant #SnakePlantSquad #Sedum #PlantShelfie #SuccerForSucculents #Delosperma #BloomingSuccs #NewGrowth #PlantAddict #PlantsMakePeopleHappy

Happy hump day #Greggers , we are almost through the week.. (yay)! I had a super busy day today, fillled with lots of plant chores. I helped my mom in her yard with moving gravel for our backyard patio/fire pit area, and we also set up her new umbrella & rug on the front porch. (Photo 2)☂️ She treated me to a new hydrangea (same type as before) I only had it for a week before the DEER ATE ALL THE BLOOMS !! 😭😭😭 when I tell you I was devastated. My sweet mom took me to replace it today. While out I saw a pretty unique looking cactus ‘Variegated Euphorbia Meloformis’. 😍 I was to repot this in a terracotta pot when I got home today. (Photo 5) My mom also gifted me a couple propagations she started from cuttings, an angel wing begonia, sweet potato vine and an elephant ear. (Photo 4) 🌿 A beautiful butterfly on a coneflower 😍🌸 (Photo 1) Snapdragons, sedum and Solomon’s seal in one of my favorite beds of my moms!
