Growing Acre Golden Carpet Sedum Garden Seeds

Sedum generally grows so hardy and vigorously that there is little reason to start seeds indoors. Sow Acre Golden Carpet seeds directly after final frost in a sunny spot at the southern end of the garden, ensuring sedum is not overshadowed. For early spring blooming, start Acre Golden Carpet seeds indoors 6-8 weeks prior. Seeds will take 14-21 days for germination. Press 5-7 Acre Golden Carpet seeds into soil without covering every 18-24 inches in average, medium moisture, and well-drained soil in full sun. Be sure to plant Acre Golden Carpet seeds at the southern end of any grow space because they only reach 3-6 inches tall and can be easily overshadowed. Acre Golden Carpet seeds grow heat and drought tolerant succulents and are known to thrive in poor, dry soils. Avoid overwatering, Acre Golden Carpet sedum does not do well in wet and poorly-drained soil. Monitor regularly for slugs and snails, but Acre Golden Carpet sedum has no serious pests or diseases. Acre Golden Carpet seeds mature at 112-119 days as thick 3-6 inch tall creeping succulents with wide 12-24 inch spread of ½ inch star-shaped golden yellow blooms.
