Sedum adolphii 'Firestorm', also known as Sedum 'Firestorm', is an attractive variety of Sedum with fleshy leaves that turn beautiful shades of red, orange and yellow in the right amount of sunlight. This succulent is prized for its ease of growth and vibrant colors, especially when exposed to plenty of light.
Origin: Native to Mexico, Sedum adolphii is adapted to dry, sunny environments, making it ideal for rock gardens or as a houseplant in temperate climates.
Growth: 'Firestorm' is a compact variety that grows into dense clumps reaching heights of around 20 to 25 cm. The leaves are arranged in rosettes, and the plant tends to spread out, forming a covering carpet if planted in the ground.
Flowers: This plant produces small, starry yellow flowers that usually appear in spring or early summer. The flowers rise on short stems above the foliage, adding a pleasing contrast to the red and yellow of the leaves.
Light: Sedum 'Firestorm' needs direct sunlight to fully develop its vivid colors. Indoors, place it near a window that receives plenty of direct sunlight for best results.
Watering: As with most succulents, watering should be moderate. Allow the substrate to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot. In winter, reduce watering to allow the plant to go dormant.
Substrate: Use a well-draining mix specially designed for cacti and succulents. A mix containing pumice and perlite is ideal for ensuring good drainage while maintaining the conditions necessary for plant health.
Toxicity: Sedum adolphii 'Firestorm' is generally considered non-toxic to humans and pets, making it safe for use in family areas.
Sedum adolphii 'Firestorm' is an exceptional succulent for beginners and experienced gardeners alike, offering ease of care and remarkable visual beauty. Its drought-tolerance and colorful appearance make it a popular choice for container arrangements, rock gardens, and as an eye-catching houseplant.
