Sedum morganianum

Sedum morganianum, known as "monkey's tail" or "horse's tail," is a popular fleshy plant native to southern Mexico. It is valued for its thick, green-silver leaves that grow in dense clusters and hang gracefully from the ends of long, flexible stems. This plant is ideal for growing in hanging pots, as the stems can reach impressive lengths, up to a meter or more, when allowed to grow freely.

Care:

1. Light: Sedum morganianum prefers strong, indirect light. It can tolerate a few hours of direct sun, but it is best to protect it during midday, especially in warmer climates, to prevent sunburn.

2. Watering: This fleshy plant requires moderate watering. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings. In winter, reduce watering frequency as the plant enters dormancy.

3. Humidity: Prefers low humidity conditions typical of indoor environments. Spraying the leaves is not necessary.

4. Temperature: Ideal temperatures are between 18-24 degrees Celsius. Avoid exposure to temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius, as it can be sensitive to cold.

5. Fertilizing: Feed the plant once a month during the active growing period (spring-summer) using a diluted fertilizer made especially for fleshy plants.

6. Repotting: Transplant Sedum morganianum every two years or when you notice the pot has become too small. Use a well-draining soil mix specific for fleshy plants.

Note: variety sensitive to transport.
