Care

Watering:

Merlot Mix™ Sedum Sod is very drought tolerant and typically only needs watering during the hottest days of summer.

Fertilizing:

Merlot Mix™ Sedum Sod needs little fertilizer, but benefits from a single springtime or fall topdressing (about 1 inch deep) of organic compost or well rotted leaves. Alternatively, a springtime application of a slow release fertilizer with a 3-1-2 ratio (such as a 15-5-10) can be applied at a rate of about 10 pounds per 1000 square feet.

Pruning:

Merlot Mix™ Sedum Sod sets its flower buds in summer, and any pruning should be conducted in April, immediately after winter.
