  •   Sedum ochroleucum 'Red Wiggle' (Plug) is a compact stonecrop succulent from the Crassulaceae family, native to rocky slopes across southern Europe and western Asia. It evolved in poor, fast-draining soils and arrives as a healthy plug ready to establish in garden beds or containers.

      The plant forms a tight clumping mat of narrow, needle-like foliage that shifts from soft green to red-orange as temperatures drop or sun intensity increases. Trailing stems weave outward in a loose, cascading habit that gives it its playful name, and the dense texture persists year-round across patios and rock garden settings.

      Sedum 'Red Wiggle' produces pale yellow star-shaped flowers in summer, typically rising on upright stems above the foliage mat. Blooming intensifies when nighttime temperatures cool, so moving it outside in autumn or leaving it through cooler evenings encourages flowering and attracts pollinators.

      It handles balcony wind, rain, and dry heated indoor air without complaint. You can leave it up to ten days without water. It moves freely between indoors and sunny outdoor spots. It is pet friendly and safe for cats and dogs, making it a practical choice for households with curious pets.

  •   Sedum ochroleucum 'Red Wiggle' (Plug) grows well in full sun to partial sun, needing at least 4–6 hours of direct light daily.

      Water it every 10–14 days during summer, then reduce to once monthly or less in winter.

      Sedum 'Red Wiggle' grows well in a gritty, fast-draining succulent or cactus mix amended with extra perlite or coarse sand.

      It handles temperatures from 25°F up to 90°F, tolerating light frost with ease.

      Sedum 'Red Wiggle' is a moderate, steady grower requiring only a light, balanced feed once in spring.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 6–9, tolerating frost down to around 0°F. It grows outdoors year-round in Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, California, Oregon, Washington, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, South Carolina, and Florida. Growers in Kansas, Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware, and parts of Colorado and Utah can also cultivate it outdoors with excellent results.
  • Q: Is Sedum ochroleucum 'Red Wiggle' (Plug) safe to keep around cats and dogs?
    A: It is non-toxic and safe for both cats and dogs.

    Q: How do I know if the soil is staying too wet?
    A: Sedum ochroleucum 'Red Wiggle' (Plug) shows soft, translucent leaves when overwatered. Let the soil dry completely between waterings to prevent root rot.

    Q: How much sun does Sedum 'Red Wiggle' need to develop its red foliage color?
    A: Full sun intensifies the red-orange tones most effectively. Partial sun works, but the foliage stays more green.

    Q: Can stem cuttings be propagated easily?
    A: Sedum 'Red Wiggle' propagates readily from stem cuttings. Snip a healthy stem, let it callous for a day or two, then press it into dry gritty soil.

    Q: Will Sedum 'Red Wiggle' survive if I travel for a week?
    A: A week away is manageable since it can tolerate absences of up to ten days between waterings.

    Q: Which window direction works best indoors during winter?
    A: A south-facing window provides the strongest winter light. If only east or west windows are available, Sedum 'Red Wiggle' placed as close to the glass as possible will perform best.

    🌵 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.
