Sedum telephium - Stonecrop

Fertilization Sedum telephium : We should avoid fertilizing our succulent plants during the cold months; a late fertilization in fact would favour the development of a vegetation rich in water, very sensible to the cold weather and to mildew.

continental : plant which needs to be exposed to direct sunrays.
The Sedum telephium is a rustic plant, which doesn’t tolerate the winter cold, even when the nocturnal temperatures are very low.

alpine : Let's locate the The Sedum telephium in a very luminous place, preferably sunny.
The Sedum telephium can stand the cold, therefore it can be grown outdoors year round.

mediterranean : These plants favour sunny exposures, where they can enjoy, even for the whole day, some direct solar rays.
Grow the The Sedum telephium in the garden, in full ground; it can stand the cold.

continental : Let’s water every 2-3 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water, or even more often if the weather is hot and dry; we should always try to keep the ground slightly damp.

alpine : Water regularly, every 3-4 weeks, wetting the soil thoroughly by using 1-2 glasses of water and keeping it always a bit moist, although avoiding to soak it too much.

mediterranean : For a balanced development these plants need constant and abundant dampness; during this time of year it is good to water frequently, about 3-4 glasses of water at least every 1-2 weeks.

Treatments Sedum telephium : Even during autumn our biggest worry are the cochineals, which develop very rapidly; before placing our succulent ones in a sheltered place we should apply a treatment based on mineral oil.
