About Spanish 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 Spanish 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 Spanish Stonecrop after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I’m not sure what is wrong with my plant or how I can make it better. Can someone help me?

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

Can you plant the petals to grow another plant? So many of mine fell off when I replanted #Sedum

I just got this plant I just placed it in succulent soil and hopefully it goes. Do I water it now or wait? Also it says from my search it's a coral reef? Can anyone verify? It does look like what I saw but want to make sure TIA #Sedum

I adopted this fragile little guy this morning and within 10 minutes (maybe 2 minutes after taking that photo) intense wind knocked him out of my hand and threw him to the ground, out of his pot. I was devastated and scooped some dirt from a city flower bed into the pot and an hour and a half later he was home and recovering. He sustained some damage but I think he'll be okay. I felt horrible! #plantinjury #SpanishStonecrop #SucculentSquad #sorryjerry #succulents #succulentlove

Can I cut this where there are leaves missing and just stick it back in the pot? Will it root and grow if I do this? #Sedum #happyplants #newgrowth #jodisplace
