Sedum pachyphyllum (Stonecrop) - A ground-hugging succulent to 1 foot tall, spreading over time by rooting stems and fallen leaves. The glaucous light green leaves are short stumpy finger-like projections and are often tipped with red. Yellow flowers appear in the summer. Full sun, requires little water. This plant, originally from Mexico (Sierra Mixta, San Luis and Oaxaca). is a common sight in succulent collections and windowsill planters.
The information on this page is based on the research that we have conducted about this plant in the San Marcos Growers library, from what we have found on reliable online sources, as well as from observations made of our crops of this plant growing in the nursery and of plants growing in the nursery's garden and those in other gardens where we may have observed it. We also have incorporated comments received from others and welcome getting feedback from those who may have additional information, particularly if this information includes cultural information that would aid others in growing Sedum pachyphyllum. |
