Product Details

Highlights

Sedeveria 'Sorrento' (Sedum × Echeveria hybrid): A stemmed rosette with bronze to coral foliage and a bright green center. Its most vibrant colors are seen when it grows in direct sun. The leaves are faceted with distinctive, light veins. Look for yellow blooms each summer.

Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need ample sunlight, good drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.

This variety is easy to re-root from stem cuttings and mature leaves.Look to our Succulent Cuttings Guide for tips on succulent propagation.

Thanks for your question.

A large stem of 'Sorrento' can grow roughly 2.5" wide. However, the whole plant, with all the stems, can be up to 16" wide or more, depending on how you grow it and how often you take cuttings of it. I hope this helps!

Sorrento shouldn't need a deep pot. It's roots are pretty shallow.

Primarily yes.

However, the only reason that is the case is because 'Sorrento' isn't cold hardy. If you lived in a zone 10 area, you could grow it outside, no problem.

I'm curious if the flowers that grow on long off shooting stems can be used as a cutting, or if we should enjoy them while they're blooming and prune them at the end of their flowering cycle? See more »

The flower stalks themselves can by planted in Echeveria (which this plant is a hybrid of). It's very possible that it would work with this plant as well!

People tend to report less success with propagating Echeveria via flower stalks than with offsets or leaves, but it certainly can be done. Just use a clean knife to cut the flower stalks off as close the the Sedeveria as you can. Then remove the flowers themselves, making sure to leave as many bracts (the leaves on the flower stalk) on as you can. Allow this cutting to dry for a day or so and then poke the cut end into some soil. With a little water and some strong light, it should take root and grow.

If this works for Sedeveria, let us know, please! That's very interesting!.

Yes! Sedeveria need lots of full sun, very gritty, well-draining soil, and deep but very infrequent water.

Shop Succulent Soil Here

Succulents need grittier soil than other plants because they are adapted to dry conditions and store water in their leaves. Regular potting soil mixes stay damp for long periods of time, which can cause rot in succulents. Instead, use a sandy, well-draining soil so you can water thoroughly without leaving your succulent in standing water.

Our plants can be transplanted immediately upon arrival.
If you want to wait to transplant, they can remain in their original containers for up to a month. If the pots came in a plastic carrier tray, remove the pots from the carrier tray prior to the first watering.

Keep the plants indoors near a sunny window or outdoors under a roof (only if outdoor temperatures stay above your succulent's minimum hardiness temperature). Water only after the soil is fully dry by drenching from above with a faucet, hose, or watering can. Gently shake excess water from the leaves and allow containers to drain completely.

Fertilizing is not necessary, but it is a good option for succulent growers who want to encourage faster, larger growth. It can be used on mature plants with established roots. Only fertilize in the growing season (spring and summer for most varieties) to avoid weakening or burning dormant plants. Use a light touch and make 2-3 applications of low-Nitrogen, diluted fertilizer each year (N-P-K ratio around 5-10-10). You can find specially-formulated cactus / succulent fertilizers in most garden centers or go organic with compost tea or bone meal.

Succulents need deep, infrequent watering, especially during their growing season and when they are young and establishing roots. Only water after the soil is completely dry and the plant feels less firm. Err on the side of underwatering. Watering too frequently is the most common way to kill succulents.

HOW TO WATER SUCCULENTS

  • Drench from above using a faucet, hose, or watering can
  • Do not mist with a spray bottle (the only exception is for Air Plants)
  • Water until it drains from the container's drainage hole. If your container does not have a drainage hole (not recommended), use about 1/3 the volume of the container…

Different succulent varieties have different light needs. You can find the Recommended Light Conditions on each variety's page by scrolling down to the Product Details. We use four categories of recommended light, and some plants can thrive under a range of light conditions.

LOW INDOOR LIGHT

  • Can grow indoors without direct sun.
  • Placing outdoors in direct sun or on sunny window sills might cause dark burns.
  • There are a limited number of succulent varieties that thrive in low light, notably Haworthia, Gasteria, Peperomia, and some Jade…
