Description
Bring a blazing, sun-kissed warmth to your collection with Sedum nussbaumerianum. Commonly known as the Coppertone Stonecrop, this exceptionally striking succulent features plump, cylindrical leaves arranged in open rosettes. In addition, the fleshy foliage transitions from a bright yellow-green to a dramatic, fiery copper-orange when grown in plenty of bright sunlight. In spring, it produces a gorgeous contrast as the luminous, low-growing mounds are topped with clusters of fragrant, white, star-shaped flowers.
Care Tips:
-
Light: Thrives in full sun or bright, direct light. High light levels keep the growth pattern tight, compact, and trigger its signature intense copper color.
-
Water: Follows a low-water routine. Always let the soil dry out completely between waterings, then soak thoroughly and allow to drain fully.
-
Soil: Prefers a loose, sharply draining succulent mix. For best results, blend your soil with plenty of perlite, grit, or river sand to prevent rot.
-
Winter: Thrives in warm conditions. However, it benefits from significantly reduced watering and protection against freezing winter temperatures or heavy frost.
