Highlights
Jelly Bean (Sedum rubrotinctum) (Clausen): A long-time favorite soft sedum from Mexico. This stemmed grower has round, fleshy leaves that spiral up its stem. It varies in color from green to red, with the brightest pigments showing when it's grown in bright sunlight. It makes a wonderfully colorful accent in potted arrangements.
Please Note: S. rubrontinctinum has naturally fragile leaves that can fall off readily, particularly in transit.
Jelly Bean is an excellent grower as long as it is not left in heavy, moist soil. It is exceptionally tolerant of full sun and drought, but it does need protection from frost. Fortunately, Jelly Bean can easily overwinter indoors if it is in a container with a drainage hole and has gritty, well-draining soil. Water deeply, but only when the soil is completely dry.
Over time, Jelly Bean will form prolific clumps and the stems will become long enough to gently cascade from containers. In spring, it produces clusters of tiny, yellow flowers that attract pollinators. This variety can drop leaves readily, but it is also one of the easiest to propagate. It will readily grow roots from both stem cuttings and leaves.
