Introducing the burro's tail succulent, known as Sedum morganianum Burrito (or Sedum burrito), which is a perfect choice among gardeners. 

Native to Southern Mexico, this Sedum burrito plant is like a superstar hanging from your ceiling, with its mesmerizing trailing stems. While it may resemble a donkey tail plant  at first glance, this gorgeous burrito sedum has shorter stems and smaller, more rounded leaves than the donkey tail succulent. 


This burro's tail succulent gets its scientific name, Sedum 'Burrito', from its long, oval- or tear-drop-shaped leaves that grow down the stem, and look like the tail of a burro.

When mature, these large burro's tail plants trailing stems reach 3–4 feet long.

The stems of the burro tail plant are covered in small, fleshy, blue-green leaves that grow in a spiral pattern along the length of the stem. The leaves are about 1 inch long and are arranged in pairs along the stem.

The flowers of Burro's tail plant bloom in spring with little star-shaped pink or red burro’s tail flowers that will burst into bloom with bright yellow stamens.

To propagate Sedum burrito, it is best to take stem cuttings or leaf cuttings during the spring or summer months when the plant is actively growing. Place the cuttings in a well-draining soil mix and keep them in a bright, indirect light location to encourage root development. However, the burro's tail care is less fragile overall, making it a great choice if you're new to growing succulents in hanging baskets. 

Plus, it is safe for humans but can be mildly toxic for pets if consumed. So, keep it away from pets and children. 

Watering Needs 

One of the coolest features of the burro's tail plant is the way it stores excess water in its leaves. That means you don't have to water this succulent plant as frequently as you might think; just make sure the topsoil is completely dry before giving it another drink to help its roots develop properly. This helps avoid overwatering and keeps your plant healthy and happy! 

During the spring and summer, this drought-tolerant Sedum burrito should be watered about once a week. During the winter dormant period, the sedum plant can be watered less frequently, about once every two weeks. It's important to make sure the soil is well-draining, as the burro's tail succulent is susceptible to root rot if it sits in water for too long, which affects the root growth. 

Remember, keep the soil moist but not soggy by misting it frequently whenever you notice the surface of the soil drying out.

Light Requirement 

To grow your burro's tail indoors, a bright windowsill or a location near a sunny window is a great place for the burro's tail succulent. It should be placed about 12 inches away from the grow light and should receive about 12–16 hours of light per day. 

If the burro tail doesn't receive enough bright light, it can become leggy, and the leaves may fall off.  The Burro's tail Sedum burrito can also be grown under artificial light, such as a grow light. This is a great option for people who live in areas with insufficient light or who want to grow succulents indoors.

For outdoor cultivation, your burro's tail prefers full sun to partial sun. The sedum plants should be placed in a sunny spot in a location where they can receive plenty of bright light but not too much direct sunlight. As direct sunlight can cause the leaves to burn, it's important to protect them from the hot afternoon sun.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Burro's tail prefers well-draining potting soil that is rich in organic matter. A succulent soil mix is a great choice for the burro's tail succulent, as it provides the drainage that succulents need. The soil should be allowed to dry out completely between waterings, as the plant is susceptible to root rot if it sits in water for too long. Ideally, you want to use our specialized succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your burro tail succulent thrive. 

The sedum burrito doesn't require a lot of fertilizer, but it can benefit from a light application of a balanced, natural fertilizer with an equal mix of NPK (5-10-5) during the growing season in the spring. It's important to avoid over-fertilizing the burro tail, as this can cause the leaves to become soft and weak. Overall, the Burro's tail is a low-maintenance succulent that doesn't require a lot of fertilizer to thrive. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

When growing indoors, your Sedum burrito burro's tail prefers temperatures between 60 and 75°F. The baby burro's tail succulent doesn't require much humidity, but it can benefit from occasional misting during the dry winter months.

When growing outdoors, it is hardy in USDA zones 10–11, which means it grows and can tolerate temperatures as low as 30°F. The burro's tail succulent prefers warm temperatures and can be grown outdoors in full sun or partial shade. The burro's tail is a hardy plant that can tolerate a wide range of temperatures and humidity levels.

Final Thoughts

Overall, the burro's tail succulent (Sedum burrito), with its cascading stems and plump, trailing leaves, adds a distinct and eye-catching element to any space. This succulent is not only visually appealing but also easy to care for. Its ability to store water in its leaves allows it to withstand periods of drought, making it a low-maintenance choice for plant enthusiasts. Whether you choose to hang it on a macramé hanger or let it spill over the edges of a pot, the burro's tail succulent is sure to bring a touch of natural beauty and charm to your home or rock garden.

Amazing product
Size: 2 Probes, Size: 2 Probes
This is not a sponsored review: I have tried multiple wireless thermometers for the last few months. I smoke meat every week and knowing the temperature of the meat is extremely important. Having WiFi for them is a game changer. I never had any disconnects and the temperature of the meat was just spot on. I made a pork loin for the first time with it. It told me the ambient temperature and I could see when the projected cook was done. It was the juiciest pork loin I have done. The display was easy to tell and read without having to pull out my phone. The app was easy to read as well. The professional app setting was amazing to see the differences between the 6 sensors all the way down to tenths of a degree. I also got the instaprobe as well. This thing is so fast to read the temperature. It reads an accurate temperature in less than a second. The company is a small upcoming company based in the United States which was a plus for sure. They maybe new to the game but they will definitely make a splash coming soon. It maybe a little more expensive than other wireless probes but it is definitely worth the money. Update after using for a while. I have had no issues at all with the product. The WiFi is amazing and almost never disconnects. The batteries are able to last through the 18-20 hour smoke without charging again. The temps are spot on. After using the Typhur Sync, the meat I have made have came out so much juicier and not dried out at all. The time to put the meat sensor is spot on. I could not recommend this company and its products enough.

Easy to use by itself or with the App
Size: 2 Probes
==Update 4/5/25 ===================== Last summer Typhur ran a sale for the Sync Quad, so I bought that and gifted the Sync to a friend. (It's still going strong.) The Quad has the same features, but with four probes, which are a bit thinner than the original Sync. I really like that the probes can go in the dishwasher, and the base unit is cleverly designed to display the probes while charging them (which is quick). The device and app both get regular updates. A few months ago the device got the ability to control the volume of the alarms it makes, and recently the app added a feature to allow notes to be added to recorded cooks, for example. ==Original review from 1/20/24 ===================== I've had the Sync for a month and a half now and am super pleased with it. It replaces an Inkbird remote thermometer with wired probes, which had been my go to for several years, but it didn't like being outside in the rain for a long cook. Because the Typhur Sync has wireless probes, I can leave the base in my kitchen out of the weather (even though they claim that the base is waterproof, too.) The cook time prediction is pretty close and allows me to get my sides prepared so everything comes to the table at the same time. The remote connection to my home wifi is strong and never fails. The App on my Android phone is fast to connect and easy to use. It has a "pro" mode that lets you see what each individual temperature sensor is reading, so if you're smoking a big prime rib like I did over Xmas, you can actually see how done it is from the outside in. Because the probes are wireless, you can insert them while inside where the light is good before going out to the grill in the dark. I've used it in my oven too, and it works just as well.

Accurate and Durable – A Game-Changer for Long Cooks!
Size: 2 Probes
After a lot of research, I decided to invest in this wireless meat thermometer, and I’m really glad I did. My first cook was a brisket, and it helped me keep an eye on the temperature with ease. The durability of these thermometers is impressive – they feel solid and built to last, even with regular use around the heat and elements of a smoker. In terms of accuracy, they’re spot on. The temperature readings have been reliable, which is essential for any serious BBQ enthusiast. These thermometers take the guesswork out of smoking, and they really do work well. The only downside I’ve noticed is occasional connectivity issues. A few times, the connection dropped and it stopped reading, which I’m still troubleshooting. I’m not sure if it’s due to the distance, as the reader is usually inside the house, or if there’s another factor at play. However, I learned that for long smokes, it’s smart to alternate between the two thermometers to keep them charged and ready for the duration. Overall, these thermometers have been top tier, making smoking and grilling much easier and more precise. If you’re willing to keep an eye on the connection, this is an excellent addition to any BBQ setup.

A must-have high-tech gear for cooking
Size: 2 Probes, Size: 2 Probes
I've been looking at wireless thermometers for while but was unsure about which brand to choose. Then I saw someone on YouTube use the Sync to cook a Christmas turkey and decided to give it a shot. The youtuber didn't just cook the entire turkey as a whole. Instead he cut it into different parts, and cooked them simultaneously at two different durations for optimal results. This was ingenious as dual probes can be extremely helpful for certain foods that require different doneness, and this thermometer monitors both the internal temperature of the food and the ambient temperature. Fast forward two weeks in, and I'm in love with this thermometer. Even though I have an instant food thermometer, I still find myself using the Sync more because you can leave the probe in to get readings instead of having to manually stick the probes in like you would with a traditional food thermometer. As an experienced chef, even though most foods look cooked on the outside, you can never really judge their internal doneness without a thermometer. 1. Highly accurate: Each probe has 5 sensors for multi-zone temperature readings ensuring the lowest point of the internal temperature is displayed with accuracy down to the decimal. I cowitnessed the readings with a high-end instant-read thermometer, and all the readings were consistent with each other. It also comes with an external ambient temperature sensor which is important because, ambient temps may vary in different parts of the oven/smoker/grill. I cowitnessed the ambients temps as well and they were also consistent. 2. Easy to connect: It can easily connect to my phone via wifi or Bluetooth. Once set up, it's super easy to use every time. 3. Stable connection: The wifi or Bluetooth connection is very stable. I've used Sync in a smoker for several cooks now, and even when it was wrapped in foil with a the lid of the smoker on, it never lost connection. There were no complex syncing issues or signal losses. 4. You can monitor the cooking progress from anywhere in your home where you can take your phone or tablet. You don't have to stay in the kitchen. 5. You can set preferences for various alerts via the app. 6. The built-in cooking time estimator is great when you're in charge of larger meals or just want to know when to lower the heat. The app will tell you when the food is done and allow a rest period for the temperature to rise. For example, if you want a medium steak and set the temperature to 135℉, the app will tell you the steak is done when it reaches 130℉ and to allow a 3-5 minute rest period for the temperature to rise to 135℉. This means you can cook proteins perfectly every time. 7. It has a large base screen that's easy to read. 8. Charging is very convenient. Just plug in the charging cable to charge the base, and stick the probes into the base to charge the probes. 9. You can select a preset in the app modify it according to your preferences. 10. Customer service. Initially, when my Sync was not charging, I contacted customer service. To my surprise, they responded quickly and offered to replace the device for free if it was defective. I was very impressed with their quick response and friendly attitude. 11. The 3-year warranty is a nice bonus. Hopefully this review has been helpful. I'll update this review if my views change or I find more ways to use it. If you're concerned about the price being higher than entry-level products, then you probably haven't taken the time to read this.

Efficient, accurate, and thoughtfully designed
This instant-read thermometer from Typhur does exactly what it promises, quick, accurate readings with no fuss. It’s fast, reliable, and has become one of those tools I reach for constantly in the kitchen. The display is bright, clear, and easy to read. It even auto-rotates based on how you're holding it, so the numbers are always right side up, no more twisting your neck trying to read upside-down temps. One of my favorite features is the magnetic back. Being able to attach it to the fridge keeps it visible and within arm’s reach when I need it most, no digging through drawers mid-cook. It’s a small detail, but one that adds a lot of everyday convenience. Unlike some of Typhur’s other products that charge via USB-C, this one runs on batteries. At first I found that a little unusual, but on second thought, I actually appreciate it. No internal battery means no long-term degradation, just pop in fresh batteries when needed and keep it going. That kind of longevity makes sense for a kitchen tool like this. Best part? I scored it on sale for under $40, which was a steal. Even at its current price point around $100, it still feels fair for the quality and performance you're getting. Highly recommended if you’re looking for an instant-read thermometer that blends speed, accuracy, and solid design.
