As @cyndi says, good for either. Where are you? In a cool, temperate climate?

@cyndi @lesliecole49 @brightcolours thanks for info I’m in Melbourne and found a great opp shop where a little old lady grows succulents well rooted healthy and cheap had to have it. Looks like there’s two different varieties one looks bi Color?

I’d put one in a pot and the other in the ground. It makes a good groundcover.

One more question if it spreads like ground cover do you think I can grow in a hanging basket?

Judy @plants lives in Melbourne and has a lovely garden. Have a look through her feed for ideas on what grows well in your climate.

To get someone's attention eg to reply or ask a Q or say thanks, you need to put an @ in front of their name so they get a notification eg @BrightColours Because this is your post you get a notification every time someone likes or comments, regardless of whether they tag you or not. 😊

Yes, you can grow it in a hanging basket. But you’ll have to pay more attention to the watering as hanging baskets dry out more quickly than pots.
