stonecrop

Stonecrop (Sedum pallidum var. bithynicum) enjoys full sunlight and should be watered every 2-3 weeks. During the peak of summer, the frequency of watering can be increased to weekly to help the plant maintain its vigor. The goal should be to keep the soil lightly moist, but not saturated. Water the plant deeply so that water penetrates through the entire root zone. As temperature drops in autumn and winter, reduce the watering frequency, and allow the topsoil to dry out slightly before watering again.

Stonecrop (Sedum pallidum var. bithynicum) requires full sunlight to thrive. This means that the plant should receive direct sunlight for at least 6 hours per day. If planted in an area where it can receive sunlight all day, it will be in its optimal growth environment. The optimal amount of sunlight will depend on the geographic location and season, so it is best to consult local gardening experts. During the summer months, when days are longer, it's best to give the stonecrop full sun for 8-12 hours and no shade for the rest of the day. In the winter, when days are shorter, it's important to give the plant the direct sunlight it needs when it is available, but also to provide shade during the hottest hours of the day.

Stonecrop (Sedum pallidum var. bithynicum) should be pruned in early Spring before the start of new growth.The plant should be pruned back to its original form to encourage new, bushy growth and to keep the plant looking neat. To do this, cut back the woody stems to a few centimeters and reduce the foliage by half. This will promote bushier, fuller growth. Be sure to keep the cutting tool clean so you don't inadvertently infect the plant with any diseases. Stonecrop can tolerate a more drastic pruning if needed. It should thrive and respond with healthy new growth no matter the severity of its pruning.
