    Congrats! I’ve got its cousin, sedum morganianum. If you’re new to this plant, I’d be happy to share some care tips I’ve picked up from caring for mine if you’d like 😊

    So for starters, you’re gonna find out pretty fast that the “beans” are very fragile and fall off very easily. They’re really easy to propagate when this happens, so just sprinkle them on top of the soil and they’ll start forming roots on their own within a few weeks. To avoid losing the beans often, you’ll probably want to bottom-water it. Also helps avoid overwatering it or attracting gnats and other pests to the soil up top. They’ve got a fairly shallow root system, so expect losing a lot of beans during a repot. Because of that, you might want a wider, but shallower pot once it starts to get bigger, and you don’t need to remove all of the soil during a repot if you want to reduce the risk of shock. I use Espoma’s cactus and succulent mix for mine. Lastly, try to avoid rubbing any of the thin “film” off of the leaves. It acts like sunscreen for the plant and it doesn’t regenerate when it’s gone, so if it loses a lot of that film from being knocked over or arrived that way, you might want to pull it a little farther from of a south-facing window to avoid the leaves getting burned. I keep mine in a south facing window, but would probably opt for a south-west or southeast facing window if anything removed the film from it. And because of the film, I would avoid trying to wipe the leaves with insecticidal soap or anything. I’ve never had a problem with pests with this plant, but because of that, if you ever have a pest problem, try to keep this one away from any infected plants cause it’ll be considerably harder to treat.

      Sorry for the long response 😂 I really love mine and she’s gotta be one of the lowest maintenance plants I have. Hope yours treats you as well as mine has 😊
