Introducing the Sedum spurium Tricolor, a beautiful and eye-catching succulent plant that belongs to the genus Sedum. Tricolor sedum has many other common names such as Caucasian stonecrop 'Tricolor', Two-row Stonecrop 'Tricolor', Dragon's Blood, Sedum spurium variegatum, and Phedimus spurius 'Tricolor'. The combination of the green, pink, and cream color gives this sedum plant a tricolor appearance, hence the name "Tricolor Sedum." The Sedum name comes from the Latin word "sedeo," meaning to sit, referring to its general growing habit of sitting and sprawling over rocks. Native to the Caucasus, the tricolor sedum is a low-growing, sprawling, mat-forming plant that is commonly grown as ground cover and grows up to 24 inches wide. The tricolor sedum is an evergreen plant with thick, obovate, flattened variegated leaves that are medium green with reddish-tinged margins. The lower stem leaves are deciduous, while newer ones are evergreen and turn deep burgundy in fall. These leaves are arranged in tight clusters, creating a dense and compact growth habit. When it's cold outside, the foliage of Sedum 'Tricolor' turns red. The combination of colors adds a lovely touch to any garden or indoor space. The flowers of Sedum spurium tricolor bloom in clusters of small, star-shaped flowers that come in various shades of pink, red, or even white. These charming blooms appear during the late spring to mid-summer months, adding a burst of color to your garden. The flowers attract pollinators like bees and butterflies, making your garden a buzzing and fluttering paradise. They create a beautiful contrast against the colorful foliage, creating a stunning display. Additionally, this Tricolor Sedum is friendly to both humans and pets. It's generally safe to have around your home or garden. However, it's always a good idea to exercise caution and keep an eye on curious pets or children around any plants, just to be on the safe side. Watering Needs When it comes to watering Sedum spurium Tricolor, it's important to find the right balance. This Sedum succulent is known for its drought-tolerant nature, so it doesn't require frequent watering. Overwatering can cause root rot, which can be harmful to the plant. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Before giving your Sedum tricolor a drink, check the top inch of the soil. If it feels dry to the touch, that's a good indication that it's time to water. Remember, it's better to underwater than to overwater this sedum. When it comes to water, make sure you do it thoroughly. Give your Sedum tricolor a good soaking, allowing the water to reach the roots. But be careful not to let it sit in standing water, as this can lead to root rot. Make sure the soil has proper drainage to prevent waterlogged roots. Sedum spurium Tricolor is more active in the growing season so it may require more frequent watering during that time. However, during the dormant period or in cooler months, it will need less water. Adjust your watering schedule accordingly to the needs of your Sedum plant. Remember, it's always better to underwater than to overwater succulents like Sedum Spurium tricolor. These succulent plants have adapted to survive in arid conditions, so they can handle periods of drought. Observing the soil moisture and adjusting your watering accordingly will help keep your sedum happy and healthy! Light Requirements When it comes to light requirements for Sedum tricolor, this lovely succulent thrives in bright and indirect sunlight. If growing indoors, find a spot for your Sedum spurium tricolor where it can receive at least 4-6 hours of sunlight each day. This can be a sunny windowsill or a spot in your garden that gets ample sunlight. Additionally, make sure to rotate your Sedum tricolor plant every few weeks. This will ensure that all sides of your tricolor sedum receive equal amounts of light and prevent it from leaning or growing lopsided. The more light it gets, the better it will grow and maintain its vibrant colors. While Sedum spurium tricolor loves sunlight, it is important to protect it from direct sunlight during the hottest parts of the day when growing outdoors. This can cause sunburn or scorch the leaves. If you notice the leaves turning brown or yellow, it may be a sign that it's getting too much direct sunlight. Consider providing some shade during the hottest hours. Remember, finding the right balance of light is key for the health and vibrancy of your Sedum spurium Tricolor. Bright and indirect sunlight is ideal, with some protection from the intense midday sun. Enjoy watching your Sedum succulent thrive in its sunny spot. Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs When it comes to choosing the right soil and fertilizers for your adorable tricolor Sedum, you need to be extra cautious and use the right kind of soil. Moisture can be a real killer, leading to root and stem rot in no time flat. But fear not, my fellow green thumbs! Planet Desert has got your back with our specialized
