ProRep Live plant. Sedum burrito (Large)
General Information: Sedum burrito is an evergreen sedum, originating in Veracruz, Mexico, growing small blue and green leaves. It is a trailing plant that can reach up to 12 inches in length. It is a popular choice for hanging baskets or displaying in a terrarium.
Ideal for the dry or scrub terrarium Sedums will tolerate drought, providing they have good light and a well drained soil. Poor airflow, or wet conditions will cause them to rot quickly. In the wild these plants often grow in dry areas with thin soils and so are great for planting amongst rocks in pockets of soil. The will then creep and tumble down over the rocks for a great effect.
Apart from the aesthetic appeal of a planted terrarium there are some very real, tangible benefits for the animals. Living plants provide natural cover and climbing perches, shade, basking sites and maintain natural humidity. Just as live plants in an office can improve workers well-being, live plants in a terrarium will have the same effect for animals.
