Donkey Tail

Description

Sedum morganianum, or Burro’s Tail, is a trailing succulent that forms long stems densely packed with plump, tear-drop leaves in a soft blue-green — spilling gracefully over the edges of hanging pots. It’s a favorite for adding cascading texture.

Give it bright light with some direct sun and water only when fully dry; it stores water in those fleshy leaves and rots easily if overwatered. Handle gently, as the beads detach readily (though each dropped leaf can be propagated). Non-toxic and easy to share with friends.
