stonecrop

Water the Stonecrop (Hylotelephium telephium 'Mohrchen') deeply once a week or when the soil is dry to a depth of 1". Water in the morning so that any water on the leaves can dry off quickly and avoid fungal diseases that may occur if the foliage stays wet. Do not let the soil dry out completely.

Stonecrop (Hylotelephium telephium 'Mohrchen') does best with full sun. It needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day and can tolerate up to 8 hours or more for optimal growth. Growing in part sun may result in leggier and less robust growth. To ensure that your stonecrop receive the most sunlight possible, make sure to plant them in a spot that has no large trees or shrubs blocking the sun’s rays. Additionally, it requires well-drained and moist soil to thrive.

Stonecrop (Hylotelephium telephium 'Mohrchen') should be pruned once a year in the late winter or very early spring. Pruning should be done to shape the plant and to encourage fresh growth. While pruning, lightly shear the entire plant, removing no more than a third of the foliage. This will help promote fuller and healthier plants. Pruning should also be done to keep the plant within its desired size and shape.
