How to Grow and Care for Sedum Showy Stonecrop
Seed Sowing & Germination
- Best Time to Plant: Start indoors in late winter to early spring, or sow outdoors after the last frost.
- Sowing Depth: Sprinkle seeds on the surface of the soil without covering them, as they require light for germination.

- Space plants 12-18 inches apart for proper air circulation and healthy growth.
- Thrives in full sun to partial shade but flowers best in full sun.
Maintenance & Care
- Watering: Water sparingly; established plants require minimal watering.
- Fertilization: Rarely needed; too much fertilizer can lead to weak, leggy growth.
- Pruning: Cut back stems in late fall or early spring to promote new growth.
