watering
Water Little Mexican stonecrop (Sedum confusum) moderately, approximately once a week. It's important to water it thoroughly, so that the soil is moist but not soggy. During hot, dry weather, you may need to water it every 5 to 7 days. In cooler, wetter weather, it can go up to 10 days between watering. Make sure to check the soil to see if it is beginning to dry out and water as needed.
sunlight
Lesser Mexican stonecrop (Sedum confusum) is a semi succulent plant that requires ample sunlight and occasional water to thrive. It can tolerate dry soil and low temperatures, but it will perform best with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day, with the light concentrated in the early morning and late afternoon. The plant becomes stressed and turns yellow if it receives too much light. It also requires adequate airflow and bright indirect light during very hot weather and should be shielded from the afternoon sun. During winter months, lessen the sun exposure to 4 to 5 hours per day.
pruning
Lesser Mexican stonecrop (Sedum confusum) should be pruned once in the early spring, before new growth begins. Pruning should be minimal and done only to remove dead or damaged stems and to shape the plant. Removing too much will reduce flowering and size of flowers. Deadheading spent seedpods will encourage more blooms. Pruning should be done carefully to avoid damaging the fragile stems and shallow roots.
