Sedum morganianum needs warm temperatures and full sun to partial shade. Use well-drained soil mix consisting of equal parts of potting mix and sand with pumice added to increase drainage. During the growing season, typically from March to October, water about once a week. The soil should be allowed to dry thoroughly between waterings.
