@GemGliricidia54 Jenny's Stonecrop (Petrosedum rupestre, formerly Sedum reflexum) is a low-growing, mat-forming perennial succulent featuring needle-like blue-green or yellow foliage that resembles spruce branch tips. It produces bright yellow star-shaped flowers in the summer and thrives as a hardy outdoor ground cover or container plant. Light RequirementsProvide full sun, ideally 6 or more hours of direct sunlight daily, to keep the stems strong and compact. Partial shade is tolerated, especially in very hot afternoon climates, though too little light causes the plant to stretch and become leggy.Soil and PlantingUse gritty, sandy, or sharply well-draining soil.Avoid heavy, wet clay or soils that hold excess moisture, which easily cause root rot. Watering Water deeply but infrequently. Allow the soil to dry out completely between watering sessions. Reduce water significantly during winter months when growth slows down or stops. Maintenance and CareFertilizing is rarely required; excess nutrients lead to weak, floppy stems.Prune or trim back sprawling stems after flowering if the mat gets too aggressive or unkempt. Hardiness spans USDA zones 3 through 9, making it capable of surviving deep freezes and summer heat.
i found r/succulents on reddit to be an incredibly useful source of info back when i knew nothing about succulents. you only need an account if you wanna post on there. it has a very good wiki full of info, comprehensive but easy to understand so it isnt overwhelming :) and theres tons of posts asking for advice so if theres any questions you have you can most likely find the answers on there :3
@Ms.Persnickety thanks for all that info that will realy help!
