How to Grow Creeping Sedum
- 1). Amend the soil where you will plant your creeping sedum by mixing a rich potting compost into the top four inches of soil. Make sure the potting compost is distributed evenly throughout.
- 2). Dig a hole just deep enough so that, when planted, the crown of your creeping sedum plant will be under 1/2 inch of amended soil.
- 3). Carefully drop the creeping sedum plant into the hole. Fill in the hole to the surface with the amended soil.
- 4). Water-in your creeping sedum immediately after planting to help the roots settle. After this initial watering, it is necessary to water your creeping sedum only during extensive dry spells.
- 5). Prune your creeping sedum as necessary to control its spread. Though not necessary, you can deadhead your creeping sedum by pinching off any dead blooms to keep your plant looking healthy.
