watering
Stonecrop (Sedum 'Twinkling Star') prefers dry soil, so you should water it only when the top inch of soil has dried completely. Aim to water your Stonecrop deeply and infrequently, providing it with about an inch of water every other week. In the winter, you should reduce that amount to about ½ inch of water once per month or less. Avoid overwatering your Stonecrop, as this can cause stem and root rot.
sunlight
Stonecrop (Sedum 'Twinkling Star') is a succulent plant that is very drought tolerant and can thrive with minimal water and sunlight. It tolerates partial shade but prefers full sun in order to produce its best blooms. It should receive at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day, preferably in the warmest hours of the day. The more sunlight it gets, the more vibrant its blooms will be. However, it is important to not over-expose this plant to the direct sunlight as it can become scorched. Therefore, a spot with morning sunlight and several hours of afternoon shade is ideal for this plant's health.
pruning
Stonecrop plants (Sedum 'Twinkling Star') should be pruned in late winter to early spring, just before new growth begins. Pruning should be done lightly to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged shoots. Rubbing or shearing is fine, as this plant will tolerate heavy pruning and still thrive. The plant should not be pruned back any further than approximately 1-third of its original size, however, to ensure that it has enough foliage to regenerate.
