When growingSedums , keep in mind that these plants require very little attention or care . They will thrive in conditions many other plants thrive in but do just as well in less hospitable areas . They are ideal for that part of your yard that gets too much sun or too little urine to grow anything else . A common name forSedumis Stonecrop because many gardeners joke that only stones require less care and last longer .

Sedumis easy planted . For short kind , laying the plant   on the ground where you require it to originate is normally enough to begin it . The plant will institutionalise out roots from wherever the stem touches the ground and root itself . If you desire to ensure the plant starts there , add a very slight territory insure .

you may break off one of the root word for taller varieties and push it into the ground where you want to grow it . The stem will root very easily , and a new plant will be established in a time of year or two .
