Highlights
Green Apple Snap (Sedum dendroideum ssp. praealtum) (de Candolle): A tall, shrubby Sedum and a strong grower. This Mexican variety is closely related to S. dendroideum and can reach 3.0' tall in Mediterranean climates. It is a fast grower and propagates easily from cuttings. It produces lots of yellow, star-shaped flowers each year.
Soft Sedum need bright sunlight to maintain their colors and full leaf coverage. They 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.
Like most succulents, soft Sedum need great drainage and deep, 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.
Soft Sedum can be propagated from stem cuttings or mature leaves. Look to our Succulent Cuttings Guide for more information.
