Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Burro's Tail Sedum. A popular and useful trailing sedum with glaucous fleshy cylindrical foliage. Please note: Although this is an undemanding little succulent to grow, the leaflets are very fragile and leaves easily fall off when disturbed. We take great care to wrap carefully when shipping, but it is inevitable that leaflets will break off.
Pendant evergreen stonecrop w/small thick leaves, pink blooms.
Can be kept outside in areas protected from frost and extreme sun. Great hanging plant. Light Shade. Pink. Indoor/Outdoor.
