Grower Notes | Obligate long day plant. Pinch 1 week after transplant. Grow with 60°-65° F nights, 75°-80° F days. Provide night interruption or day length extension to force flowering under natural short days. Supplemental lighting during cloudy days has proven beneficial for flower production. AVOID CHEMICAL SPRAYS. |
Sedum ‘Conga Line’
Strong upright stems are covered in multicolored foliage topped with lovely peach, coral and cream flowers in late summer. Foliage colors shift from green and purple to warm burgundy tones during flowering. Short, compact habit keeps this plant from opening up over the years. A champion pollinator attractor also!
