Succulents are hard to grow? The variety is key, and potted Sedum lineare is the right choice

Succulents, no one knows when exactly they became everyone's darling. Their colors are diverse and their varieties are too numerous to count, but perhaps "beauties" all come with thorns. Although succulents are beautiful, caring for them really easily runs into problems, especially in summer, which is simply a "disaster period" for succulents!

In fact, each variety of succulent has its own different care method, and they cannot be lumped together. In summer, because succulents enter dormancy, care must be done with extra attention. But today Huahua recommends a succulent for everyone, named Sedum lineare. It counts as one of the more "obedient" ones in the succulent world, easy to grow and easy on the eyes!

Sedum lineare is actually quite common in daily life, it is just that no one pays attention to it. It usually appears in roadside lawns or in the plant decorations in front of scenic spots. Because it stays green all four seasons, it is perfect as a decorative plant, which also shows that the vitality of Sedum lineare is truly very tenacious. So how should potted Sedum lineare be cared for? Huahua will tell you right now!

1. Soil selection

Because Sedum lineare lives outdoors for a long time, its requirements for soil are not too high. Ordinary garden soil or sandy soil can keep it alive. When Sedum lineare is planted as a potted plant, only a small flower pot is needed. Grown compactly like this, Sedum lineare looks relatively more attractive.

2. Light and temperature

Light is crucial to Sedum lineare. Only with sufficient light will Sedum lineare grow more vigorously. And Sedum lineare has a magical trait: the color of its leaves can change with the intensity of the light. When the light is stronger, the leaves are generally yellow-green, and when the light is a little weaker, the leaves become glossy green. The suitable growing temperature for Sedum lineare is about 15 degrees, and in winter it can survive even at a low temperature of minus 5 degrees.

3. Watering issues

Watering is crucial to any plant. Sedum lineare is a succulent that likes water. During its growing period, it is best to keep the potting soil moist, because only enough water can provide it with enough nutrients. But by early summer, watering must begin to be controlled. After all, summer is the dormant period for succulents, otherwise even the vigorous Sedum lineare cannot withstand potting soil that is too hot and wet!

4. Fertilizing issues

Sedum lineare grows relatively fast, so fertilizer is also indispensable. About once a month, farmyard manure needs to be applied, so that Sedum lineare can have enough nutrition to support the growth of its branches and leaves.

Although this succulent plant Sedum lineare does not have as elaborate and beautiful an appearance as plants such as Yaozhuang, its glossy green leaves growing into a cluster are also very pleasing to look at. The most important thing is that it is relatively simple to care for. Friends who like succulents should hurry and get one this autumn!
