Some upright stonecrop varieties (such as ‘Autumn Joy’) undoubtedly prefer to be outdoors, where they can soak up the sun and stretch out their flowering limbs. But there are many sedum varieties that can thrive indoors. Moss stonecrop (Sedum acre) is fine as long as it receives lots of direct light and ample drainage. Compact Sedum ‘Angelina’ is well suited to containers with gritty drainage.  Some sedums prefer being grown as houseplants. Sedum morganianum (aka burro’s tail) easily adapts to indoor living if you choose a container or hanging basket that enables its trailing habit. While the tightly clustered jelly bean plant (Sedum rubrotinctum) flourishes if you allow the potting medium to dry out between watering.
