Succulents are some of the easiest plants to propagate. Today, we are going to go over propagating one of my favorite types of plants; Sedum.

Sedum doesn’t look like most succulents. Since it is made to thrive here, we get to see it in its full glory, unlike many typically exotic succulents. My favorite type, the Autumn Joy Sedum, looks like a beautiful bush of flowers, but a little more interesting. In fact, this stonecrop plant is considered a staple and a must-have for cottage gardens, and anyone going for the cottage-shabby-chic aesthetic.

Stonecrop Facts:

The Sedum plant we are checking out today, does not look like Autumn Joy, or Autumn Fire. In fact, it doesn't even look real. I purchased small young plantings from an online store. Here is the picture the online store provided, claiming the plants would grow to look like this. Today's Sedum is Curacao Blue Sedum. Which looks like:

Strangely, I can not find ANY information on Curacao Sedum. If anyone finds anything, can you send me a shout out? or add it to the comments? I am still waiting to see if my little plants indeed grow up and change into these fabulous striking colors. If they don't, I’ll still be just as satisfied and happy. As I might have mentioned, I love me some sedum genus plants!

The only photos I have found are from the online store (im assuming I cant say which one for libel reasons), and that happens to be the same place I got the darn plants! They were young and solid healthy green in color when they arrived. I am starting to believe that they are going to grow up to be the common Creeping Blue Sedum:

I found another blog talking about Sedum. It seemed like they had not ever seen the tie-dyed Curacao Sedum in person; they were just referencing it as an awesome Sedum plant. And weird yet again, the photos THEY had of the Curacao plants were ALSO sourced from the same Online Store. Does this plant exist? As mine grow and begin to take form, shape and color, I hope I’ll have good news to bring back to you, to the other blog, and to all! A home photo of a Curacao Sedum Plant!

—I’ve also started to wonder if maybe the plant usually lives in a different climate and region; and in the USA, the plant cannot reach its maximum state or full potential—it can’t make those crazy colors; it does its best under the condition its in and turns out looking like the Blue Creeping Sedum.
