Seattle Sedum/stonecrop trimming

When it comes to maintaining a beautiful garden, trimming your Seattle Sedum, or stonecrop, is an essential task that can easily be overlooked. These low-growing succulents are perfect for adding texture and color to your landscape, but they require regular trimming to stay healthy and visually appealing. A quick trim not only enhances curb appeal but also promotes safety by preventing overgrowth that can obstruct pathways. Plus, sedum is eco-friendly and low-maintenance, making it a great choice for busy homeowners and small property managers alike.
