Characteristics

  • Flowers: In late summer, ‘Tokyo Sun’ produces clusters of star-shaped yellow flowers that attract pollinators, adding further visual interest.

Care Instructions

Light Requirements

Sedum japonicum ‘Tokyo Sun’ thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. It can tolerate partial shade but will produce more vibrant colors and flowers with ample sunlight.

Soil and Potting

Use a well-draining soil mix specifically designed for succulents or cacti. A combination of potting soil with perlite or sand is ideal for promoting drainage. Ensure that pots have drainage holes to prevent water accumulation.

Watering

Employ the “soak and dry” method when watering. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. During the growing season, water every 1 to 2 weeks, adjusting frequency based on environmental conditions. In extreme heat or drought conditions, more frequent watering may be necessary.

Temperature and Humidity

This succulent prefers moderate temperatures between 60°F to 80°F (15°C to 27°C). It is not cold hardy; if temperatures drop below 10°F (-12°C), it should be brought indoors or protected from frost.

Fertilization

Fertilize during the growing season with a diluted balanced fertilizer once a month. Avoid fertilizing during winter when the plant is dormant.

Propagation

Sedum japonicum ‘Tokyo Sun’ can be easily propagated from cuttings. To propagate:

  1. Use a sterile knife or scissors to remove a healthy stem from the main plant.
  2. Allow the cut end to callous for several days.
  3. Place the cutting in well-draining soil and water only when the soil has dried out completely.

Common Issues

  • Pests: Regularly check for pests such as mealybugs and aphids. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap.
  • Diseases: Overwatering is the primary concern for this succulent, leading to root rot. Ensure proper watering techniques are followed.
