Do succulents stay green in zone 6 winters?
-
Jenny@birdsandsoap on Sep 23, 2013I have a few in pots that I leave year round. They turn a dark purple color and the leaves wilt to the stem, but they come back every spring and trail everywhere. I just leave them alone and trim them in the spring to my liking. If they are planted in ground, they spread like a ground cover. Leave them that way, and see how awesome they are in the spring!Helpful Reply

Douglas Hunt on Sep 23, 2013I think it depends on what type of succulents you have, and whether they are in the ground or in pots. If they are in pots I suspect it would be a good idea to move them into an unheated garage or somewhere they would get some protection. I'll bet @Drought Smart Plants will have some good advice for you.Helpful Reply
