stonecrop

Stonecrop (Hylotelephium 'Maestro') should be watered about once a week during the summer months (May through September). During the hotter months, water enough to keep the soil lightly moist (but not wet) and during the cooler months, water a little less. If the leaves look wilted, water thoroughly and check to make sure the soil is draining properly. During the winter months, maintain very moist soil and stop fertilizing in the fall.

Stonecrop (Hylotelephium 'Maestro') prefers to be planted in full sun for the best flowering and foliage color. It should get at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight each day during the growing season. In areas with intense sunlight and high heat, it can benefit from partial shade or afternoon afternoon sun. Although it can tolerate some light shade, it is best to plant your Stonecrop in an area that will get consistent, direct sun for optimal health and flowering.

Stonecrop (Hylotelephium 'Maestro') should be pruned in late spring or early summer, just after flowering. Remove spent flowers as they fade, cutting back flower stems to a pair of healthy leaves. Lightly prune leggy or overgrown plants. Trim foliage only if it becomes too large for its setting. Leave at least half of the original length of each stem when pruning. Also, remove dead or damaged foliage to allow for new growth. Lastly, prune off any stems that grow beyond the edges of the plant to maintain a neat appearance and to keep the plant from becoming too dense or overcrowded.
