How to Care ×Sedeveria, Growing ×Sedeveria, Caring for ×Sedeveria
The ×Sedeveria genus is widely appreciated for its minimal and convenient care requirements. Basic care needs include bright but indirect light exposure, well-draining soil, and a gentle watering regimen which allows the soil to dry out between waterings. Temperature-wise, they tolerate a fairly wide range, but prefer moderate climatic conditions. It is also worth noting they are susceptible to rot when over-watered, so strict watering measures are crucial. Seasonally, their needs shift slightly, with less water required during winter dormancy period and more attention needed to guard against frost.

How to Water ×Sedeveria?
Watering Frequency: Every 3 weeks
×Sedeveria thrives in environments that mimic its native arid conditions, requiring minimal watering to maintain its succulence. Its drought tolerance is high, and it prefers a dry atmosphere over humidity. Accordingly, ×Sedeveria should be watered once every three weeks to avoid over-saturation of the soil. As an outdoor plant often found in rock gardens or xeriscapes, ×Sedeveria's ability to store water in its leaves allows it to withstand periods without rain, making it a prime candidate for water-wise landscaping.

Watering needs vary, but in general, allow the soil to dry completely before re-watering. To plant ×Sedeveria, prepare the ground by loosening the soil and adding coarse sand or fine gravel for drainage. Position the plant at the surface level and water initially, then sparingly moving forward. Remember that specific species may have different needs, so knowledge of individual characteristics is beneficial.

Markus
The markus grows fast, is very adaptable to various environments, and can be grown in the open all year round. Its leaves are constantly green or yellowish-green, but turn golden and pink in seasons that provide plenty of light and the right temperatures. Propagation by leaf cuttings is usually successful, and the plant grows quickly after budding, often in large clusters.
Happy plant
The color of each happy plant leaf changes with the seasons. It is green during its growing season, and then, as the weather cools and the temperature variation gets larger, its leaf margins begin to turn pink. At the peak of its beauty, its leaves turn blue, and its leaf tips look bright red.
Sedeveria
Sedeveria (×Sedeveria 'Whitestone Crop'-duplicate) is a succulent species valued for ornamental purposes when grown in small pots and containers. Sedeveria is thought to be a rare hybrid between Echeveria prolifera Otero F24 and Sedum stahlii. This species is treasured by succulent collectors, but is still rare. Its preferred growth conditions are largely uncharacterized.
Pink ruby
The pink ruby has a smooth leaf surface with a waxy sensation. The whole plant turns bright red when there is plenty of light and the right temperatures, making it look like a glimmering ruby after the rain, when water droplets still hang on the leaves. In the summer, the leaves tend to fade to emerald green.
Lety's sedeveria
The lety's sedeveria is capable of sprouting small lateral buds from where old leaves have fallen, and this is where branches develop from. With sufficient light and the right temperatures, the leaves will display a green-to-red gradient from their center to their margin. However, when light is insufficient, excessive growth will rapidly occur, and the color of the leaves will quickly fade to green.
Super donkey tail
These hybrid succulents are a cross between the cascading Sedum morganianum (Donkey’s Tail) and Echevaria derenbergii (Painted Lady). Thy hybridization gives the super donkey tail larger, more robust leaves. It has a tendency to sprawl, and can be planted indoors or out, provided it gets bright light and infrequent water.
Sedeveria hummelii
The sedeveria hummelii is a hybridized variety from the Jellybeans and the Painted-lady. Its leaf tips easily redden, with its leaves turning an orange-yellow in the fall and winter seasons, when light is sufficient. In the summer, the plant tends to grow excessively and its leaves revert to green. In the spring, lateral buds will usually sprout on the stems.
