watering
Stonecrop should be watered deeply, once a week, allowing the soil to dry at least halfway down the pot before watering again. It should be given more or less water, depending on the season and the temperature. During hot summer months, water more frequently, while a little less during the cooler months. You can check the soil moisture by sticking a finger into the soil - if the top 2 inches of soil feels dry, then it's time to water.
sunlight
Stonecrop or Sedum makinoi 'Ogon' thrives on full sun. This plant species prefers at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. During the growing season (from late spring through late summer), it is best to give it full sun all day. In the winter months, it can tolerate a few hours of direct sun in the morning and afternoon. Keeping the plant in a location where it receives this amount of direct sunlight will ensure it develops strong, vibrant foliage and produces a generous amount of blooms.
pruning
Stonecrop (Sedum makinoi 'Ogon') can be pruned at any time of the year, although the best time for pruning is in the late winter or early spring when the plant is just beginning to bloom. Prune away any dead or damaged stems and any stems that cross each other or are too long. If you want to induce more blooms, then you may prune lightly after the plant has bloomed. Prune off the flowers and spent stems to keep the plant looking neat and tidy. Avoid pruning too much, or else it could stunt the growth of the plant.
