Sedum burrito – Burro’s Tail

 🌿🌵

The Sedum burrito, commonly called Burro’s Tail or Donkey’s Tail, is a much-loved trailing succulent with long, hanging stems densely packed with plump, blue-green leaves. Its cascading habit makes it ideal for hanging baskets and shelves, where it adds a soft, textured look.

Key Features:

✔ Distinctive trailing succulent with bead-like leaves

✔ Cascading stems can grow over 60 cm long

✔ Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance

✔ Perfect for hanging baskets, shelves, or succulent arrangements

✔ A collector’s favourite for its unique texture and form

Care Instructions:

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light – some gentle direct sun is beneficial

• Watering: Water sparingly; allow soil to dry completely between waterings

• Soil: Best in a well-draining succulent/cactus mix

• Feeding: Fertilise lightly every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with cactus feed

• Temperature: Prefers 18–26°C; protect from frost

• Growth: Long trailing stems up to 60–100 cm indoors

🌿 Tip: Handle gently – the fleshy leaves are delicate and can fall off easily, but they can also be propagated to grow new plants.
