Baby Sedum Burrito Burrows Tail (Sedum Morganianum)

Sedum Burrito, also known as Burro’s Tail or Donkey’s Tail, is a trailing succulent plant prized for its cascading stems of plump, fleshy leaves. The plant is native to Mexico and Honduras and grows in rocky and arid regions.

The leaves of Sedum Burrito are pale blue-green and cylindrical or oval-shaped, with a rounded tip. They grow in a spiral pattern along the stems, reaching up to 3 feet in length. The leaves are densely packed, giving the plant a full and lush appearance.

In the summer, Sedum Burrito produces clusters of small, pink or red, star-shaped flowers at the tips of its stems. The flowers are attractive to bees and other pollinators.

Sedum Burrito is an easy-to-grow plant that is well-suited to various growing conditions. It prefers bright, indirect light and well-draining soil. It is drought-tolerant and does not require frequent watering. As a trailing plant, it is often grown in hanging baskets or as a ground cover in rock gardens. It is a popular choice for succulent enthusiasts and is commonly used in arrangements with other succulents or cacti.

Sedum Burrito propagates by breaking easily, we will ship and wrap as carefully as possible, but some parts of the plant will inevitably break away from the mother plant. These can be easily propagated and it’s natural and normal. The plant soon grows larger once settled. Please only buy if you understand its normal (and think its fun propagating plants!).
