Scientific Name
Sedum multiceps Coss. & Durieu
Common Names
Miniature Joshua Tree, Little Joshua Tree, Baby Joshua Tree
Scientific Classification
Family: Crassulaceae
Subfamily: Sedoideae
Tribe: Sedeae
Subtribe: Sedinae
Genus: Sedum
Description
Sedum multiceps forms a miniature, much-branched sub-shrub, up to 6 inches (15 cm) tall. Most of the tiny glaucous grayish-green leaves are in clusters near the tips of the branches, giving the appearance of miniature “Joshua Trees”. Flowers are star-shaped, yellow in color. Blooms during summer months.
How to Grow and Care
When growing Sedum, keep in mind that Sedum plants need very little attention or care. They will thrive in conditions that many other plants thrive in, but will do just as well in less hospitable areas. They are ideal for that part of your yard that gets too much sun or too little water to grow anything else. A common name for Sedum is Stonecrop, due to the fact that many gardeners joke that only stones need less care and live longer.
Sedum is easily planted. For shorter varieties, simply laying the plant on the ground where you want it to grow is normally enough to get the Sedum plant started there. They will send out roots from wherever the stem is touching the ground and root itself. If you would like to further ensure that the plant will start there, you can add a very thin covering of soil over the plant.
For taller Sedum varieties, you can break off one of the stems and push it into the ground where you would like to grow it.
