Sedum Burrito Donkey Tail Succulent Plant in 2.5 Inch Pot

Sedum burrito, commonly known as Donkey Tail, is a charming trailing succulent prized for its dense strands of plump, blue-green leaves. Each leaf is rounded and tightly packed along the stem, creating a cascading effect that resembles a donkey's tail. This unique succulent is perfect for hanging baskets, tall planters, or as a trailing accent in succulent arrangements. Its distinctive texture and color make it a standout in any indoor or outdoor collection.

Donkey Tail is a low-maintenance plant that thrives with minimal care, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced gardeners. It prefers bright light and well-draining soil, and its trailing habit adds a soft, sculptural element to shelves, windowsills, and patios.

Planting & Care

When repotting your Sedum burrito, choose a container with drainage holes and fill it with a well-draining succulent mix. Handle the plant gently, as the leaves detach easily. Place in a location that receives bright light, such as a south or west-facing window. Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry, typically every 2-3 weeks, depending on humidity and light. Reduce watering in winter.

To maintain a compact, bushy appearance, pinch back the stems occasionally. Donkey Tail is susceptible to overwatering, so ensure the soil drains freely and never let the plant sit in water. Fertilize sparingly with a balanced succulent fertilizer during the growing season.
