Burro's Tail Sedum (Sedum morganianum)

Burro's Tail Sedum is a trailing succulent that turns a simple pot into a full, cascading display with very little effort. Its bead-like leaves stack tightly along draping stems, creating a lush texture that instantly makes shelves and hanging planters look styled. Once established, it prefers a dry rhythm between waterings, which makes it a forgiving choice for busy routines. Give it bright light and fast drainage, and it will reward you with longer, fuller trails over time.

Distinctive Features

This plant is known for long, pendant stems densely covered in plump, blue-green leaves that overlap like a braid. The stems can grow quite long with age, forming a dramatic curtain effect in hanging baskets, but they are also fragile and can drop leaves if handled roughly. In good conditions it may produce small, star-shaped flowers in pink to red tones, most often in late spring through summer, though flowering indoors can be sporadic. Overall, it is valued for its clean, sculptural texture and its ability to fill space with a soft, cascading form.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Bright light is best, including gentle direct sun after gradual acclimation.
  • Soil: Use a fast-draining cactus or succulent mix in a pot with drainage.
  • Water: Water thoroughly, then let the soil dry out well before watering again, watering less in winter.
  • USDA Zones: 10 to 11 outdoors, and grown as a houseplant anywhere.
  • Mature Size: Trailing stems commonly reach about 2 to 4 feet long in containers over time.
  • Habit: Trailing, cascading succulent with draping stems.

Ideal Uses

  • Hanging Baskets: Let stems spill freely for a full cascade that looks finished from day one.
  • Shelves and Plant Stands: Place it high so the trailing texture adds movement and softens hard lines.
  • Bright Windows: Grow near strong light to encourage tighter leaf spacing and sturdier stems.
  • Patio Containers: Use outdoors in warm months to boost growth, then bring indoors before cold weather.
  • Focal Point: Feature a single pot in a simple hanging planter where the trailing ropes become the main visual statement.
  • Succulent Pairings: Combine with upright succulents in separate pots to balance vertical structure with trailing texture.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Handling: Move gently and avoid brushing the stems, since leaves can drop easily.
  • Light Adjustment: Increase light gradually if growth stretches, and avoid sudden intense sun that can scorch leaves.
  • Drainage: Keep roots out of soggy soil, since prolonged wetness can cause rot.
  • Pruning: Trim long stems to shape the plant, and use cuttings to start new pots.
  • Propagation: Root fallen leaves or stem cuttings after the ends dry and callus, then plant in a gritty mix.

Why Choose Burro's Tail Sedum?

  • Cascading Texture: Dense, braided-looking stems create instant visual impact in small spaces.
  • Low Water Needs: A dry-between-waterings routine keeps care simple and consistent.
  • Space Efficient: Trails downward to add volume and style without taking up tabletop space.
  • Easy to Multiply: Cuttings and dropped leaves can root, making it simple to build a fuller display.
  • Collector Appeal: The unique leaf patterning stands out from typical rosette succulents.
  • Indoor Friendly: Performs well in containers where you can control drainage and light.

If you want a trailing succulent that looks polished and stays manageable with a simple routine, Burro's Tail Sedum is an excellent choice. Give it bright light, fast drainage, and time to dry between waterings, and it will develop into a long, textured cascade that elevates any space.

Good gift for anyone who loves this brand
Color: Leopard Jungle White, Size: 40"x50"

Lovely Blanket, Concerning Packaging
Color: Leopard Jungle White, Size: 40"x50"
The blanket is very beautiful and incredibly soft — exactly as described, and perfect for a baby. However, the packaging is a big downside. To secure the large cardboard with the prominent logo, the product used an excessive number of plastic tag fasteners. It took quite a while to carefully remove them all. If any small piece is accidentally left behind, it could pose a serious hazard for babies, as they might easily swallow it. Overall, great product quality, but the packaging design could be much safer and more thoughtful.

Stylish and Cozy Throw Blanket for your little one
Color: Leopard Jungle White, Size: 40"x50"
I'm so glad I grabbed this “juicy couture Leopard Jungle White baby blanket ". The colors are so chic and modern. It's the perfect way to add a touch of style to any room. It is a lightweight throw blanket, which is perfect for year-round use! Plus, it's machine washable, which is a huge bonus! This is my 13 month old daughters go to blanket. When she grabs this and rubs her eyes I know what time it is! I love that no matter how many times I was the blanket it does not lose its colors or soft touch. I have loved juicy couture my whole teenage and adult life and I’m so excited to pass it on to my daughter one blanket and jewelry and outfit at a time. Juicy couture everything!!! The price is undoubtedly worth the product and value that juicy couture provides.

Beauty Quality Excellent Price!
Size: Queen (90x90 Inch), Color: Olive
Wonderful quality blanket! It’s light weight, warm without being heavy, beautiful rich color. Super fast shipping. Came in a smallish box and I was a little worried it would be cheap, but being experienced with items that come with the air sucked out so I waited to see. Sure enough, once the plastic was off it fluffed out and I popped it in the dryer for 5 minutes and all the wrinkles were gone too! I absolutely don’t need a bed spread because the finish looks like expensive silk velvet! I’m buying more for the other bedrooms! I ordered a Queen, olive, 90”x90”, price is incredible and I would have paid double to get this kind of quality! Love the rich feel and gorgeous color of this blanket. I know they call it olive but it is actually a deep luxurious fern from an untouched dark forest filled with fairy houses and wonderous beings! I’m getting another, sigh…

Exactly as described
Size: Throw XL (50x70 Inch), Color: Navy
I wanted to get the little longer size, to help cover my feet while I sleep, because I sleep in a recliner due to back issues. Wow! The material is super soft, and keeps just at the right temperature of warmth at night, so the material breathes well. The extra 10 inches is a godsend now.. My feet stay warm all night long now. So the fit is perfect! The quality of the blanket is great, I’ve had no problems with it. Although my white watch band is now blue.. so I guess the color likes to bleed a bit. I haven’t washed it yet, but I will wash it either alone or with dark colors, because I believe it will bleed its color a bit in the wash & perhaps in the dryer. Still, with it being so comfortable and soft, I would highly recommend this blanket to everyone!
