The Sedum spathulifolium 'Cape Blanco' is a ground-hugging evergreen perennial that forms an attractive carpet of powdery, gray-green thick leaves that are occasionally purple-tinged. Whether planted in rock gardens, containers, green roofs, or as a groundcover, this cold-hardy succulent offers long-lasting color and texture throughout the year, making it a popular choice in both residential and commercial designs. 

Native to the rocky slopes and coastal bluffs of Western North America, particularly in Oregon, California, and British Columbia, it has tight rosettes on creeping stems with spoon-shaped, fleshy leaves, which are coated with a powdery white wax (known as farina). This coating gives the foliage a striking silvery or icy-blue appearance, which intensifies under bright sunlight and cool temperatures. 

The plant forms a spreading mat, typically grows up to 4 inches tall and 18 inches wide at maturity, making it ideal as a living mulch or groundcover in drought-tolerant landscapes. 

The flowers of this Sedum stonecrop bloom from late spring to early summer, lasting approximately 2 to 3 weeks.

During this time, clusters of bright yellow, star-shaped flowers rise just above the silver rosettes, creating a striking contrast.

The blooms typically start in the last week of spring and can continue into the first or second week of summer, providing a cheerful splash of color against the foliage.

The Sedum ‘Cape Blanco’ makes an excellent trailing or spilling plant for containers, rock walls, and vertical gardens. Its shallow root system and draping habit allow it to thrive in tight spaces where other plants might struggle.

Often used as a filler or spiller in succulent combinations, this plant adds texture and silvery-blue tones to arrangements. It's also well-suited to alpine gardens, patio crevices, or green roofs, making it a versatile choice for small-space or urban gardening.

When and How to Water Your Sedum spathulifolium 

The Sedum spathulifolium is highly drought-tolerant, making it a fantastic low-maintenance choice for dry gardens, rock landscapes, and containers. This Sedum stonecrop has evolved to store water efficiently in its fleshy, silver-gray leaves. Always test the soil with your finger or a moisture meter to ensure it's dry at least 2 inches deep before watering again.

In the spring and summer, during their actively growing period, water moderately, typically every 10 to 14 days, if grown outdoors in full sun. Indoor plants may need water every 2 to 3 weeks, depending on temperature and humidity levels. It's important to let the soil dry out completely between watering sessions, especially during active growing seasons. Avoid splashing water directly on the foliage, which can cause rot.

In fall and winter, the plant enters dormancy, reduce watering to once a month or even less. Watch for shriveling leaves as a sign of dehydration, but err on the side of underwatering during dormancy to prevent root rot.

Light Requirements Where to Place Your Sedum Cape Blanco 

When grown indoors as a houseplant, your Sedum spathulifolium should be placed in the bright indirect sunlight, such as a south-facing window for at least 4 to 6 hours.

Without sufficient light, the plant may become leggy and lose its vibrant coloration. If natural light is limited, supplement with a grow light for 10–12 hours daily to mimic full sun exposure.

For outdoor growth, Sedum stonecrop thrives in full sun to partial shade, for at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and flowering.

In areas with intense heat, some afternoon shade can help prevent leaf scorches, especially during peak summer.

The silvery foliage reflects sunlight, making this sedum more tolerant of bright conditions than many green-leaved varieties. Full sun promotes tighter, more colorful rosettes and encourages the production of bright yellow flowers from late spring to early summer. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Broadleaf Stonecrop performs best in a well-draining succulent mix. Good aeration prevents root rot, especially in cooler months when water evaporates more slowly. Raised beds or rocky slopes are ideal outdoor locations. If planting in the ground, amend heavy clay with sand, perlite, or pumice to improve drainage. 

For containers, choose shallow pots with drainage holes, and avoid using regular garden soil. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally use our specialized succulent potting mix, opens in a new tab that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your succulent to thrive. This species doesn’t require rich soil; in fact, too much organic matter can lead to excessive moisture retention and weak growth. 

Fertilization is rarely necessary, but if desired, use a balanced, diluted NPK fertilizer (5-10-5) once in early spring to give it a boost as the plant begins active growth. Avoid feeding during the dormant season. Overfertilizing can lead to floppy growth and fewer flowers. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

When grown indoors as a houseplant, Sedum spathulifolium prefers temperatures between 60°F and 75°F and moderate humidity. Keep it near a sunny window or under grow lights where it can get the required 4–6 hours of light. Avoid placing it near cold drafts or heating vents. Dry indoor environments are generally suitable as the plant is accustomed to low humidity.

For outdoor growth, this sedum stonecrop is hardy in USDA Zones 5 through 9, making it one of the more cold-tolerant succulents.

It can handle temperatures as low as -20°F.

In these zones, it grows best in full sun with low to moderate humidity levels.

In areas with heavy winter rainfall, use gravel mulch or plant in elevated beds to prevent moisture buildup. 

Wildlife Sedum flowers Attract the Following Friendly Pollinators 

The bright yellow blooms of Broadleaf Stonecrop are magnets for pollinators. From late spring to early summer, clusters of star-shaped flowers attract bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, hoverflies, and other beneficial insects. These pollinators not only enhance the surrounding ecosystem but also help other plants in your garden flourish.

According to the ASPCA, the Sedum spathulifolium, is non-toxic to humans, cats, dogs, and horses. However, ingestion in large quantities may still cause mild digestive upset. It’s considered safe for homes with pets and makes a pet-friendly addition to container gardens or ground covers. 

How to Propagate Your Sedum spathulifolium  

The most common method to propagate your Sedum spathulifolium is by leaf or stem cuttings. Simply snip a healthy rosette with a bit of stem attached using sterile scissors. Allow the cutting to callus for 1–2 days in a shaded, dry location. Then, place the cutting into well-draining soil and water lightly. Keep the soil slightly moist (not wet) until roots form in 2–3 weeks. 

You can also divide mature clumps in spring or early fall. Gently lift the plant, separate the rooted sections, and replant them in fresh soil. Propagation is best done during the active growing season, and results are typically fast, especially with bright light and warm temperatures.

Updated 1/28/2020 update 1/17/2020 It's been everything it was advertised to be and more. (Not)
Size: 11S
I called Amazon again today. Explained the situation and that no one from Amazon or Eufy had returned my calls as they promised. Also after replacing the battery at my own expense it ran 90 minutes again but got stuck everywhere, made this weird ratcheting type noise every time it changed surfaces and finally today just beeped at me twice and died. Supposedly that indicates a seized brush but they all spin freely. This time I just flat out asked them to look at my Amazon account and replace it, as I'm a very good customer. New one will be here tomorrow. I'll do a separate review on that one as it took me forever to find this one again. I'll also let you know if it's a refurbished unit or not. Well wouldn't you know it. I leave a nice review and a few days later, Murphy's law rears it's ugly head. Device is 3 months old a couple weeks out of the exchange warranty and the battery is shot. Runs 5 or 10 minutes on a full charge. Called Amazon to see if since I am a really long standing customer if they'd help me out. Nope but we'll call Eufy support on your behalf and they will call you. We will also call you to follow up. I've been a customer service manager a lot of years and this is where employees can kill you. This Amazon person made me multiple promises. It's been a week no call from Eufy, no call from Amazon. You just turned 4 stars into 1 and if this is all the longer the batter lasts don't bother because the replacements are $25 to $30 bucks depending on the brand. I'm not spending a hundred bucks a year on batteries and this thing should be under warranty. After 3 days I ordered a new battery and Rosie is running again but I'm no longer pleased and the next time I'll buy another brand. If if this battery doesn't last the whole thing goes in the trash and I buy something else. I run this every day maybe the batteries won't take that I don't know. But if you're going to run it every day buy something else. This didn't last long enough at all. I wanted to wait a while to be sure I had a good sampling and could post a fair and useful review. It's been 90 days now. We have two large (bigger than standard) labradoodle puppies. 85 and 50 pounds and they're 1st generation so they shed a lot. They also, being puppies, have tore the yard up so it is basically a mud pit and they wrestle, run, and fight constantly. They put a lot of dirt and hair on the floors and in the air. We run "Rosie" every day. Yes my wife named it. It does an amazing job on our hardwood floors and throw rugs. It gets all the hair and an incredible amount of dust and dirt. What I mean by that is we can run our Dyson or the Shark Pet vacuum and then run Rosie and the chamber will be full of dust and dirt when she's done. It's almost disconcerting to know our very expensive upright vacuums leave so much behind. It also has the unadvertised ability to buff our hardwood floors. They shine when she's done and the beater brush is showing no signs of damaging the finish on our floors. I would disagree with some of the reviews and even the manufacturers assertion that it doesn't work well on dark floors. Our hardwood floors are a dark reddish brown. The device works great on them and as I said when it's finished they shine. We have agreed we will never be without one and love this device. It does everything it has been advertised to do and more. Also it is set to automatic power and runs longer than the advertised time on a full charge. We get about 2 hours and 15 minutes. We've put down an additional 6 throw rugs for the rainy snow season in the path where the dogs run when they come in and the time has dropped to around 90 to 100 minutes. Still long enough to cover everything well and more than once. It does keep going until it needs a charge it doesn't just run and go back to the dock. I've noticed in the open areas like our living room it might hit that 2 or even 3 times. The floors are like glass after that. Now for the negatives, and these are not deal breakers I'm just being fair. The dirt and dust I referred to is new to us. we recently moved from Illinois to Ohio. In Illinois the dirt is black. Here it is red or a very light brown. The vacuum gets externally dirty. It gets covered with dust/dirt and does not look good. The device is black and the dust is light colored and is readily apparent. I don't want to put it away all the time or for company so thats a problem for me and more cleaning which is not advertised so I'm mentioning it. Secondly it needs to be emptied every use or every other use. They are all like that except some of the super expensive robot vacuums so I wouldn't mention it except for my third negative. It is hard to clean from a mess standpoint. Not so much with the pet hair but with the dust. When you dump it the dust goes everywhere. Unless you have an empty trash can so you can get it way down inside when you're done the garbage can lid and sometimes the floor around the garbage can is clearly dusty from emptying the vacuum. The filters need to be removed at least every other running and they are also a big dusty mess. I also don't believe they will last as long as advertised. I have an air compressor in the garage and a hand held electric air compressor and use those to clean the filter. The foam piece I rinse in the sink. I don't think that someone without access to those tools is going to get the life out of the filters thats advertised. The device comes with a set of replacement filters and the rotating brushes. Not the beater bush though. Our unit is 3 months old. I had to replace the filters at about 40 days and tried to make them last a little longer this time but it hasn't worked out. The outside of the device is filthy. I believe this is due to the filters. The brushes have lasted longer than the suggested replacement time. They are 90 days old and still look like new. Last and has been a rare negative. The device will get stuck under things. Once I learned what the obstacles were in our home it was easy to fix. Some areas I blocked with rolled up moving blankets. I pull the chairs out from under the kitchen table to allow room for it to maneuver. If I don't it gets under there and spends way too much time cleaning and trying to get out. I'd rather it spend less time under there so it can do the whole cleaning area and have power left to do it again. I had the problem spots corrected and figured out within the first 30 days. I've read some units have a tape or something the vacuum will sense and avoid. I wish this unit had that but then again at this price point that is probably an unfair expectation. So those are the pro's and con's we've encountered. The con's are all minor irritants and not a reason not to buy the device as all of these devices are prone to these issues except one or two of the very very expensive units. To repeat what I said earlier this device has worked out so well we have decided that we will never be without one and that when the time comes to replace her we will not feel bad about spending the money for a high dollar unit as it is worth it. Time is worth more to us than money and this thing saves us a great deal of time. It does great job, has done no damage to anything, and if it weren't for the clean up issues would be a five star review. I hope this helps someone make an informed decision and I hope you buy one. It's an amazing little machine, stands up to all the reviews, and truly is the best bang for your buck in robot vacuums.

Good for routine maintenance
The Eufy is a huge time saver, but the one annoying thing is continuously needing parts to replace it. This is where this purchase comes in - these parts fit just like the original parts, and take just seconds to install. They seem to be just as durable and functional. The brushes sweep corners well, and the filters keep the machine quiet while still pulliing in all of the dust. It's a great value to buy several at a time since they need to be replaced on a regular basis. Highly recommend!

Great set of parts for the C10
I have 3 dogs and 3 cats so my robot vacuums get run multiple times a day and need maintenance performed more frequently as a result, plus I go through a LOT of the bags. (Labradors… IYKYK.) These parts appeared identical to the originals and all fit perfectly into my vacuum. The filters and brushes were all excellent quality and the roller bar was possibly a little better than the original. The dust bags feel thinner than the original but I haven’t had any issues with them - they fit into the compartment properly and haven’t torn or broken open. It’s a good kit and I think a pretty good deal, I would definitely get it again.

Perfect!
Everything in the set feels high quality and fits my Robo perfectly. Installation was simple, and the pieces line up just like the original hardware. You get a lot for what you pay, so it feels like a really solid value at this price point.
