  •   Sedum ochroleucum 'Red Wiggle' (Plug) is a compact, cold hardy stonecrop succulent belonging to the Crassulaceae family. Native to rocky, sun-baked slopes across southern Europe and western Asia, this drought tolerant succulent evolved to thrive in poor, fast-draining soils with minimal fuss. It arrives as a healthy plug, ready to establish quickly in your garden or containers.

      Sedum ochroleucum 'Red Wiggle' (Plug) forms a tight, clumping mat of narrow, needle-like leaves that blush from soft green to rich red-orange as temperatures cool or sun intensifies. The trailing stems weave outward in a loose, cascading habit that gives this full sun succulent its playful name. Foliage remains dense and textural year-round, making it a standout among low maintenance succulents on any patio or rock garden shelf.

      Sedum ochroleucum 'Red Wiggle' (Plug) produces cheerful, pale yellow star-shaped flowers in summer, typically on upright stems above the foliage mat. Blooming is encouraged by a nighttime temperature drop, so moving it outdoors in autumn or leaving it outside through cooler evenings is genuinely rewarding. Flowers attract pollinators and add a soft, bright accent to the plant's warm red foliage.

    🌵 For Succulents
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
    Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
