Burro's Tail

Sedum morganianum

Long trailing stems densely packed with plump, blue-green fleshy leaves that detach very easily when disturbed

Growth habit: trailing, succulent. Drought tolerance: high.

Leaves detach very easily when touched or moved - this mechanical leaf drop is normal handling sensitivity, not disease. Sparse, elongated growth points toward insufficient light. Mushy or translucent leaves point toward excess moisture.

Plant Mood Meter: Go With the Flow

Simple water needs but strong light is important, and the leaves fall off easily if the plant is handled.
