  •   Cherry Tart Sedum Sunsparkler is a compact, drought-tolerant succulent in the Crassulaceae family, native to rocky, sun-drenched regions of the Northern Hemisphere. This stonecrop grows naturally in lean soils and rugged conditions that challenge most plants. It suits gardens and containers.

      Sedum 'Cherry Tart' forms dense, low clumps with trailing stems that spill over pot edges and garden beds. The fleshy, spoon-shaped leaves shift from green to burgundy-red in full sun, deepening to a deep cherry hue during cooler months. It grows as a clumping trailer, reaching a tidy cascading form that works well in hanging baskets, rock gardens, and mixed succulent arrangements.

      In late summer, it produces star-shaped pink to rosy-red flowers on short stems above the foliage, attracting pollinators to the garden. Rotate it regularly indoors to ensure balanced growth on all sides.

      Sedum 'Cherry Tart' grows well on patios, balconies, and windowsills where it handles wind and rain without issue. It tolerates dry heated indoor air and transitions between indoor and outdoor settings effortlessly. You can leave it up to ten days without water. This plant is non-toxic and safe for cats and dogs.

  •   Cherry Tart Sedum Sunsparkler thrives in partial to full sun, with at least four to six hours of direct light daily for the deepest leaf color.

      Water it every 10 to 14 days indoors, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.

      Sedum 'Cherry Tart' does best in a fast-draining succulent or cactus mix blended with coarse perlite or grit.

      It prefers temperatures between 40 and 85°F, showing strong frost tolerance once established in the garden.

      Sedum 'Cherry Tart' is a slow to moderate grower requiring minimal fertilizing, at most one light balanced feeding in spring.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 4 through 9, tolerating winter temperatures as low as around negative 30°F. It grows outdoors in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. It grows outdoors in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. It grows outdoors in Utah, Washington, Oregon, and throughout California, as well as in Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas, particularly in regions where summers remain warm and winters stay within zone range.
  • Q: How much light does Cherry Tart Sedum Sunsparkler need?
    A: It performs best in partial to full sun; insufficient light causes leaf color to fade and stems to stretch toward available light sources.

    Q: What's the best way to tell if it's overwatered?
    A: Cherry Tart Sedum Sunsparkler develops soft, translucent leaves and a mushy base when root rot sets in. If this occurs, stop watering immediately and repot into fresh dry soil.

    Q: Can Sedum 'Cherry Tart' grow indoors year-round?
    A: Yes, though indoor leaf color tends toward muted tones compared to outdoor summer placement where deeper cherry hues develop.

    Q: How fast does it spread?
    A: Sedum 'Cherry Tart' expands slowly to moderately over one to two seasons, gradually widening into a larger clump or extending its trailing form.

    Q: Is Sedum 'Cherry Tart' propagation straightforward?
    A: Yes. Take stem cuttings, let the cut end dry for a day or two, then place in well-draining soil and mist lightly until roots form.

    Q: What USDA zones support this plant?
    A: Sedum 'Cherry Tart' is hardy in USDA zones 4 through 9, covering most of the continental United States from the Midwest through the South and into the West Coast.

    🌵 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.
