The sedum that I have in my collection is found also a very interesting species. Is it Sedum ssp amplexicaule amplexicale. However, it is a plant rather for collectors, I would like to mention the traits that this kind of stands out. The above named stonecrop occurs mainly in arid and rocky areas of Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia and the Balkans. This is a small creeping sedum with a form of growth, age, forming dense cushions. And what is his specialty? This sedum has a vynímečné period of growth, which is cold.

In the summer months through this period of calm stonecrop. At that at all its succulent propagule impression that they are oduřelé and dry. In this state of dormant shoots are very light, separated from the mother plants and wind are transmitted into the surroundings. Sunk in the gravel survive until September, when it slowly awakens to the growth and roots. During the winter months the plant is in full growth. At the end of the spring growth period occurs again at rest. At that time the first buds appear at the same time. Peak flowering occurs in June, when most parts of herbaceous plants dried again and covered with leaves seschlými.

Sedum ssp amplexicaule amplexicale easily přečkává marzivé our winters. Larger problems has winter rainy weather. It is therefore appropriate plant before winter transfer to a protected place under the roof or in a cold greenhouse. In summer it is advisable to protect the plant cover of network or curtains in front of wind drift.
