Ogon Sedum is a tiny-leaved spreading ground cover sedum that is noted for its bright gold foliage. The best golden leaf color usually occurs with some part afternoon shade. Tiny, star-like, yellow-green flowers appear in summer. Excellent small ground cover that will not become invasive. Use in rock gardens, flagstone paths, along rock walls or to spill over container edges.

Ogon Sedum Feeding Instructions

Feed lightly in Spring and then on an as needed basis through late Summer. We generally recommend a slow-release granular flower food, higher in the middle number: this is phospherous, which helps to promote strong root systems, strong stems and plenty of flowers. Alternatively, you may use a natural or organic, non-burning plant food. Refer to product label for application rates and instruction.

Ogon Sedum Pruning Instructions

Clip lightly to shape if needed throughout the season. If your plant becomes overgrown or spindly, rejuvination pruning may be necessary. Rejuvination pruning usually requires removal of two-thirds, or more, of a plants foliage. The best time for rejuvination pruning is just before the bud break in early Spring.

Ogon Sedum Pest Instructions

This plant typically encounters very few pest or disease problems. If a pest or disease problem is identified, treat with an insecticide product, preferably one containing "Neem oil". Neem oil is a safe, triple-action product that can be used to control insects, mites and diseases. If your plant appears seriously stressed or diseased, consult with your local nurseryman, arborist, professional landscaper or local extension agent.
