130+ Attractive Sedum Varieties With Pictures

Sedums are easy-to-grow succulents that add color and interest to your garden in summer and fall. There are hundreds of sedum varieties and most require little more than a sunny spot in well-drained soil.

Types of Sedums

Sedums come in 3 categories:

Upright Sedum Varieties

These Sedum types have dense, domed flowers and succulent leaves on 1- to 2-foot stems. These taller sedum varieties generally behave like perennials and do well in zones 4 or 5 to 9, with a layer of winter mulch recommended in zones 4 and 5.

Creeping Sedum Varieties

These stonecrop varieties produce clusters of star-shaped flowers. They are well suited for ground cover, rock walls, roof gardens, living walls, or tucked into strawberry pots.

Trailing Sedum Varieties

One popular example is the donkey’s tail, also called burro’s or lamb’s tail. These Sedum types are well-suited for draping over the edges of containers or hanging baskets.

Sedum acre

Sedum acre, commonly known as common stonecrop or gold moss stonecrop, is a charming evergreen succulent perennial. Although it reaches a modest height of only 3 inches (7.6 cm), it spreads vigorously along the ground, forming a carpet-like growth that can extend to 24 inches (61 cm) or more. This succulent is characterized by its rhizomatous and tuberous roots, enabling it to establish a dense and moss-like ground cover. Native to Europe, Northern Africa, and Western Asia, it thrives in rocky crevices, edges of ravines, and scrubby areas.

The plant features pale green leaves that are blunt and conical in shape, measuring a mere 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) in length. These leaves overlap like the shingles on a roof, giving the plant a unique appearance. Throughout the majority of the summer, small clusters of tiny, star-shaped yellow flowers emerge from the terminal ends of the stems. Each flower has five petals and measures approximately 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) across. These delicate blooms form flat terminal inflorescences just above the foliage, adding to the beauty of the plant.

Sedum actinocarpum

Sedum actinocarpum is an annual succulent characterized by its straightforward growth and branching pattern. The stems of this plant are usually erect and slender, extending up to 7.2 inches (18 cm) in height. The leaves, which are alternately arranged or occasionally opposite, have a spatulate shape and are round or obtuse at the apex. They measure up to 1.1 inches (2.7 cm) in length and up to 0.45 inches (1.1 cm) in width.

During the late winter to spring period, Sedum actinocarpum produces vibrant yellow, star-shaped flowers. These flowers have five petals and are arranged in cymes, which are clusters where the central flower blooms first and the surrounding flowers follow sequentially. As the flowers fade, they give way to horizontally spreading follicles that contain small brown seeds. The specific epithet “actinocarpum” describes this succulent’s characteristic fruit development, as it refers to the five carpels that mature into follicles, spreading out to form a rosette-like shape.

Sedum adolphi

Sedum adolphi, also known as Sedum nussbaumerianum, is a captivating succulent shrub characterized by its spreading, sprawling, or ascending stems. This plant forms a lovely, bushy appearance and can reach a height of up to 12 inches (30 cm). The yellow-green leaves of Sedum adolphi exhibit a striking transformation in full sun, displaying highlights of orange-red coloration. These leaves are broadly lanceolate to obovate, with a length of up to 1.2 inches (3 cm). As the stems mature, they continuously produce new leaves, shedding the oldest ones in the process.

During the late winter to the spring season, Sedum adolphi adorns itself with white flowers that emit a delicate fragrance. These fragrant blooms emerge in flat-topped umbel-like inflorescences, adding a touch of beauty to the already stunning succulent.

Native to Mexico, Sedum adolphi thrives in rocky terrains and on cliff faces in the region of Veracruz. As a fascinating tidbit, it’s worth noting that the spelling of this specific epithet often includes two “i”s (Sedum adolphii). However, the correct spelling should feature a single “i” as it represents the genitive form of Adolphus, which is the Latinized name for Adolf Engler.

Sedum aetnense

Sedum aetnense is a petite annual succulent that typically grows up to 2.4 inches (6 cm) tall. Its upright or ascending stems are usually unbranched and covered with fleshy leaves that stand erect. The leaves are conical-oblong in shape and can reach a length of approximately 0.2 inches (0.5 cm). They are glaucous, which means they have a waxy, bluish-gray appearance, although they may also have shades of dark green or a reddish tint. The leaf margins are often lined with fine teeth or tiny hairs.

During the summer months, Sedum aetnense produces flowers in cymose inflorescences. These clusters are generally composed of one or, in larger plants, sometimes two or more cincinni. The flowers have 4 to 5 petals, which are typically white but may exhibit a touch of red. The anthers, responsible for producing pollen, range in color from yellowish to reddish tones. The species is named “aetnense” (pronounced AN-yoo-um), which means “of or from Etna.” This specific epithet is a reference to Mount Etna, a highly active volcano situated on the eastern coast of Sicily in Italy. Mount Etna serves as the type locality, or original place of discovery, for Sedum aetnense.

Sedum aizoon

Sedum aizoon, commonly called aizoon stonecrop, is a rhizomatous, tuberous-rooted, succulent, herbaceous perennial with upright usually branchless vertical stems rising to 12-20” tall with a spread to 24” wide. It is native from the Ural Mountains through Siberia to China where it is primarily found in rock crevices, ravine edges, and scrubby areas.

Bristly stems are clad with alternate, sessile, flat but slightly reflexed, lanceolate to elliptic to ovate, succulent, bright green leaves (to 2-3” long) with irregularly toothed margins. Five-petaled, star-shaped, bright yellow flowers (to 1/2” across) bloom in flat terminal inflorescences (cymes to 3-4” wide) in summer (June-July).

Sedum album

Sedum album, commonly known as White Stonecrop, is a resilient succulent perennial that exhibits excellent tolerance to drought and heat. This low-growing plant forms a dense mat-like structure, featuring evergreen foliage composed of small, fleshy, finger-shaped leaves. The leaves are typically green in color but, as the seasons change, they develop a delightful red flush during the fall and winter months. Interestingly, the leaf coloration is also influenced by moisture levels. In dry periods, Sedum album darkens to shades of red or brown, while with ample water, the foliage regains its vibrant green color.

In midsummer, clusters of tiny, star-shaped white flowers appear just above the foliage, enhancing the plant’s visual appeal. These flowers attract numerous butterflies, creating a lively and captivating landscape. Sedum album exhibits vigorous growth, spreading along the ground through creeping stems that root at the nodes. The plant reaches a height of 3-6 inches (7-15 cm) and can broaden to 18-24 inches (45-60 cm) in width.

Originating from Europe, Siberia, Western Asia, and North Africa, Sedum album showcases its adaptability to various regions and climates, making it a versatile and desirable addition to gardens and landscapes. It is well-suited for areas prone to dry spells and high temperatures, as it thrives under challenging conditions while still providing an attractive display when in full bloom.

Sedum allantoides

Sedum allantoides is a succulent plant that grows as a small shrub up to 12 inches (30 cm) tall. The leaves are arranged in rosettes. They are thick, powdery, pale blue-green, up to 1.2 inches (3 cm) long and up to 0.3 inches (0.8 cm) in diameter. The flowers are greenish-white and appear in summer.

Sedum alpestre

As its name suggests this is a plant of the hills and mountains and can be found on rocks even at heights of nearly 11,000 feet. Sedum alpestre is a low-growing species with yellow flowers sometimes having red veins in the petals. It is found in the Swiss Alps, the Julian Alps and the Dolomites, and the Pyrenees and is dotted about in some Greek and Corsican hills.

Sedum andegavense

Sedum anglicum

Sedum anglicum is a low-growing perennial with stubby, succulent, untoothed, alternate leaves. These are often greyish-green and may turn pink in dry conditions. The flowers are short-stalked and star-like, white (sometimes tinged pink), with ten contrasting stamens and five carpels. The fruits are red.

Sedum annuum (Annual Stonecrop)

The Annual Stonecrop is a small succulent plant with yellow flowers. It is more common in coastal regions and the southeast of Iceland. It resembles Sedum acre (Biting Stonecrop) but it is smaller and doesn’t form mats like the biting stonecrop. Also, all stems form flowers (not so in the perennial mats of the biting stonecrop). The yellow petals are narrower than the biting stonecrop.

Sedum arenarium

Sedum assyriacum

Sedum assyriacum is a small succulent annual that typically reaches a height of up to 8 cm (3 inches). These plants have a smooth, glabrous texture. The leaves of Sedum assyriacum are bright green to yellowish, fleshy, and semi-terete in shape. The floral bracts resemble the leaves in appearance. The petals, which are strongly bright yellow, are approximately 5 times longer than the tepals. The plant bears 10 stamens with glabrous filaments. The ovary is divided into 5 elongated lobes, eventually developing into 5 erect and smooth follicles. Hidden at the bases of the tepals are spatulate nectariferous scales, which possess a notched apex.

Sedum assyriacum is native to Israel and can be found in damp vernal pools with heavy soil in the Central Golan Heights. These pools sometimes experience flooding. This habitat is also home to other plant species that are typical of such environments, including Damasonium polyspermum, D. alisma, Elatine macropoda, Myosurus minimus, as well as annual species of Lythrum and Pulicaria.

Initially misidentified as Sedum palaestinum due to its yellow flowers and petals longer than the tepals, Sedum assyriacum was discovered near the Revaya Water Reserve in the Golan Heights in 2017 by Yair Ur. However, Dar Ben-Natan later correctly identified it as Sedum assyriacum in 2019. This plant, considered sub-endemic, is found in only a few locations, occurring in Lebanon, Syria, and now in northern Israel as well.

Sedum atratum

Sedum atratum is a small mountain stonecrop with flowering stems deep, wine-red, and tiny green leaves, changing to red in small clusters. A super-cute tiny sedum, with fiery red stems that makes great contrast with the rocks and other plants. Tedious to collect.

Sedum baleensis

Sedum bellum

Sedum bellums form rosettes of tiny, fleshy, chocolate brown-green leaves on a sturdy trailing stem. They grow 10 – 20cm tall, eventually lean back to the ground and trail producing new roots where it touches the soil.

They produce a cluster of orange flowers on tall stems. They are drought-tolerant, and hardy and look stunning in rockeries, hanging baskets, and water-wise gardens.

Sedum borissovae

Sedum brevifolium

Sedum brevifolium is a small but beautiful sedum species, bearing tiny, glaucous, and succulent leaves that are topped with starry white flowers in summer.

It associates well with other sedum varieties and looks superb surrounded by pebbles or gravel in a container, rock garden, or the cracks and crevices of walls. Though attractive in flower, Sedum brevifolium is at its very best in midwinter when its colorful evergreen foliage makes it stand out over other winter foliage plants.

Sedum bulbiferum

Sedum bulbiferum is a perennial succulent with a tangled, straggly habit. The stems are up to 2 feet (60 cm) long. The leaves at the stem tips or scattered, up to 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) long, opposite below, upper alternate. The flowers are small, star-shaped, yellow, and appear in summer.

Sedum burrito

‘Discovered’ in 1970 in a nursery, the origin of this plant is quite an enigmatic mystery. There is no known record of the Sedum burrito having occurred in its habitat, so far its native habitat is unknown to science.

As the Sedum burrito seems similar to the cliff dweller Sedum morganianum, which is native to Veracruz, Mexico, and forms long cascading stems of glaucous blue-green leaves, there has been conjecture that perhaps Sedum burrito is a natural Sedum morganianum hybrid.

Sedum burrito, also known as burro’s tail, is distinguishable from the related Sedum morganianum for its shorter, fatter, rounder leaves and “tails”. Stems that emerge from the plant’s crown are thickly clad with juicy, grey-green leaves, which overlap like the coarse hair on a donkey’s tail.

The leaves are also less prone to breaking off the stem. In the summer the buds on the tip turn pink and begin to bloom. Donkey Tail sedum is very fragile and the little bean leaves fall off quite easily.

Sedum caeruleum

Sedum caeruleum is an annual, succulent, bushy herb, glabrous or sparsely glandular-pubescent throughout, simple or much-branched from the base, erect, 5-15(-20) cm tall. The leaves are narrowly oblong and usually tinted red.

It is a very distinctive species, not the least because of its attractive star-shaped, blue flowers — a color otherwise not reported for species of sedum and altogether rare throughout the world of succulent plants, and is highly worthy of every attention that may be bestowed upon it. It is rather variable concerning flower color and hairiness.

Sedum cepaea

Sedum cepaea is a bushy, annual plant producing usually a solitary, much-branched, erect stem; it can grow up to 30cm tall. The plant is harvested from the wild for local use as a medicine. It has at times been cultivated for its medicinal uses. Sedum cepaea is a moderately cold-hardy plant, tolerating temperatures down to around -15°c when dormant.

Sedum clavatum

Sedum clavatum is an attractive succulent, up to 4 inches (10 cm) tall, with stout, creeping stems terminating in rosettes up to 2 inches (5 cm) in diameter. The leaves are succulent glaucous, pale green or blue-green, sometimes with red tips.

It has a compact inflorescence of many white star-shaped flowers in mid to late spring to early summer. The stems lose their leaves as they elongate but are often covered by younger stems so the plant can look like a solid mat of attractive succulent gray-colored rosettes.

Sedum clavifolium

Sedum cockerellii

Cockerell’s stonecrop is a succulent perennial that grows to about 6 inches tall. It has flattened linear succulent leaves and white to pinkish flowers. It blooms from June to September depending on elevation. Plants grow in rocky often shady places in the mountains of Arizona, New Mexico, and western Texas at elevations of 7,000-11,500 feet.

Many sedum varieties, or their close relatives, are popular garden plants or houseplants. Cockerell’s stonecrop is sometimes grown in rock gardens, but it is too small to make much of a display. Native plant nurseries often sell various species of stonecrops.

Sedum commixtum

Sedum commixtum, also known as Sedum ‘Comic Tom’, is a perennial, succulent subshrub, with several stems, up to 1 foot (30 cm) long, and with lax rosettes. The leaves are waxy, first blue-glaucous, later purplish-red or brownish, up to 1.2 inches (3 cm) long and up to 0.7 inches (1.7 cm) wide. The flowers are small, star-shaped and dull yellow.

Sedum compactum

The perennials have a mat-forming habit and reach heights of 2 to 4 centimeters. Sedum compactum is evergreen. The middle-green, simple leaves are arranged in rosettes. They are ovate, entire and sessile. Sedum compactum produces white five-stellate flowers in June and July. The perennials produce follicles.

Sedum confusum

Sedum confusum is a ground cover that forms a foliage mat up to 10 inches (25 cm) tall, spreading by trailing stems. The leaves are fleshy, oval, glossy dark green, and concentrate toward the tips of arching branches. It can get a pink tinge at its leaf edges when grown in full sun. Clusters of yellow, star-like flowers appear in summer.

Sedum corynephyllum

The Sedum corynephyllum is an upright succulent that has a core woody stem or branch in the middle from which fleshy and light green leaves grow. These leaves are cylindrical.

Sedum cremnophila

Sedum cremnophila is a tender succulent with bronze-green rosettes up to 7 inches (17.5 cm) in diameter and star-shaped, yellow blossoms appearing in summer. The leaves are alternate, rosulate and turgid, with rounded margins and up to 4 inches (10 cm) long. The inflorescences are particularly long and horizontal or pendent.

Sedum creticum

Sedum cyaneum

Sedum cyaneum is an excellent groundcover plant, particularly for hot, dry sites with poor soil. This variety forms a flat, dense mat of gray-green leaves. Clusters of purple-pink flowers appear in late summer into fall.

Sedum cyaneum is well suited for the rock garden or edging in a dry border, also a good choice for containers. Sedum cyaneum makes a good companion plant for Eryngium amethystinum ‘Sapphire Blue.’

Sedum dasyphyllum

Corsican stonecrop, Sedum dasyphyllum, is a low-growing ground cover plant suitable for hot, dry situations. It forms a carpet of tiny round, powdery blue-green leaves, from which clusters of star-shaped flowers appear in early summer.

As winter approaches its leaves to develop a purple hue. Ideal for growing between stepping stones, on green roofs or in the crevices of dry walls, it may also be used as a lawn substitute given the right hot, dry conditions.

Sedum debile

Leaves of sedum debile are quite distinctive, being thick, rounded, and pinkish, and they form little globular clusters at the base of the flowering stalks. Leaf surfaces are somewhat glaucous. All plant parts are hairless. The leaf-bearing stems tend to grow along the ground, rising towards the upper end. Leaf tips are rounded, sometimes with a small, shallow notch.

Flowering stalks are longer than the stems, up to 5 inches, and they grow vertically upwards or at an angle. They also have opposite leaves, more widely separated than those on the stems, and tend to wither by flowering time.

Flowers are produced in a terminal cluster of between two and seven; each flower has five pale green, lanceolate, equally-sized sepals and five yellow, elliptic petals, around a third of an inch long. Petals are fused at the base. At the center of the flower are eight yellow stamens and five pistils.

Sedum dendroideum

Sedum dendroideum is a small, succulent shrub up to 3 feet (90 cm) tall and up to 4 feet (1.2 m) wide. It is often confused with Sedum praealtum. The leaves are green, spathulate and 1.6 inches (2.8 cm) long. It has a line of subepidermal glands all along leaf margins, a feature that immediately separates it from its look-alike relatives.

These glands can be red in summer but are visible at all times. S. praealtum has no such glands and leaves tend to be more yellow-green. The large clusters of small vivid yellow, star-shaped flowers form above the foliage in late winter and early spring.

Sedum diffusum

Growing naturally on limestone rocky slopes, Sedum diffusum has adapted well to typical garden conditions. Sedum diffusum gives a unique peachy-colored foliage effect, mimicking the appearance of tightly woven strings of jelly beans lying on the ground. In May, the mat is topped with small, white, star-shaped flowers. Sedum diffusum spreads slowly.

Sedum divergens

Sedum divergens (also known as Cascade Stonecrop) is a spreading ground cover native to the Pacific Northwest. It grows with sprawling stems up to 4.0″ tall covered with glossy green and pink leaves. The foliage is particularly round and stacks up in neat, opposite pairs. It blooms in summer with yellow, star-shaped flowers.

Sedum emarginatum (also known as Chinese Stonecrop) forms an evergreen mat of green, succulent foliage with rosettes of flat, paddle-shaped leaves. The foliage turns reddish-bronze in cooler weather. Displays a profusion of yellow, star-like flowers.

Sedum emarginatum is drought tolerant, requiring little water once established. It makes an excellent woodland groundcover, or container spiller, or is even great planted on a green roof.

Sedum ewersii

(Also sometimes called Hylotelephium ewersii) This well-behaved Stonecrop species is an excellent edging or rock garden plant, particularly for hot, dry sites. It forms a low, non-spreading tuft or mound of rounded, blue-green leaves.

Rose-pink star flowers appear in late summer, clustered at the ends of each stem. Deciduous in winter, trim to the ground in late fall or early spring. Nice in gravel scree, alpine trough, or mixed container. A good candidate for any collection of fine alpine plants.

Sedum farinosum

Sedum formosanum

Sedum forsterianum ‘Oracle’

Sedum fosterianum ‘Oracle’ is a mat-forming, evergreen stonecrop that is native to western Europe. It typically grows to 4-8″ tall and spreads to 10-12″ wide. Non-flowering stems are densely covered with pointed, flattened, succulent, gray-green leaves (to 3/8″ long) in obconical rosettes.

‘Oracle’ is a cultivar that features star-shaped yellow flowers (1/2” wide) that bloom in terminal clusters (cymes) in summer (June-July).

Sedum furfuraceum

Sedum furfuraceum is a low-growing, branching succulent up to 4 inches (10 cm) tall and up to 1 foot (30 cm) wide. Leaves are egg-shaped, up to 0.4 inches (1 cm) long, dark green, covered in scurfy, whitish scales, and aligned in tight, spiral rows. They are often reddish-purple in bright light.

Lower leaves turn a reddish-orange hue and later drop off to expose twisted, thick, gray-white stems. Pinkish-white, star-like flowers appear in early spring and each lasts for about 10 days.

Sedum glaucophyllum

Sedum glaucophyllum is a prostrate, mat-forming evergreen perennial plant forming patches up to 30–40 cm (12–15.5 in) in diameter. The leaves are glaucous green, succulent, rounded, 1–2 cm (0.5–1 in) long and wide, arranged in a dense helix on the stems.

The flowers are white, 10–12 mm (0.39–0.47 in) in diameter, with four slender, pointed petals; they are produced in clusters on erect stems up to 10 cm (4 in) tall, held above the foliage.

Sedum gracile

Sedum greggii

Sedum greggii is a perennial succulent plant with cone-shaped rosettes at the base of the flowering branches. Leaves are alternate oblanceolate or elliptic, rounded to obtuse, up to 0.5 inches (1.3 cm) long, and up to 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) wide.

Flowering stems are branched, up to 6 inches (15 cm) tall. Flowers are star-shaped and yellow. After yellow flowers are spent in midsummer, tightly packed, imbricate leaves form cone-like rosettes at the bases of stems. These buds elongate the following winter.

By spring, stems are seen for the first time as simple, terminal inflorescences of several flowers rise above still relatively tightly packed, elongated tufts.

Sedum grisebachii

Sedum grisebachii is an easy ground cover with tiny, bead-like leaves. Its color can vary from green to red. It thrives even in rocky soil and can tolerate full sun, drought and hard frosts. In summer it blooms with lots of tiny, star-shaped, yellow flowers. This species is native to the high elevations of Greece and Bulgaria.

Sedum griseum

Blue-gray narrow needle-like succulent foliage sits in dense whorls along the stems of this somewhat of a sub-shrub-like Sedum. Sedum griseum makes an easy container specimen plant or can be used in combination with other sedum varieties and succulents.

This is a native of Mexico and is not tolerant of hard frosts and freezes so bring it indoors into a sunny location for winter. The blue Sedum griseum may produce clusters of starry white flowers in winter and or early spring.

Sedum guatemalense

Sedum gypsicola

Sedum hakonense ‘Chocolate Ball’

This well-behaved Stonecrop species is an excellent edging or rock garden plant, particularly for hot, dry sites with poor soil. This unique variety forms a low-spreading mound of milk chocolate, succulent, needle-like leaves that change to dazzling red with the onset of cooler temperatures in fall.

Yellow flowers appear in summer and continue into early fall. Gorgeous year-round. Reliable if provided with adequate drainage. Also well-suited for growing in tubs and alpine trough gardens. A good candidate for any collection of fine alpine plants.

Sedum hernandezii

Sedum humifusum

Sedum humifusum is a low-growing, mat-forming, succulent plant up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) tall, with deep green foliage that turns bright red in heat and cold. Brilliant yellow, five-petaled flowers are up to 0.4 inches (1 cm) across and are produced in early summer. The neat, compact, miniaturized habit and freely produced flowers make this species a prized specimen.

Sedum hybridum

Sedum hybridum ‘Immergrünchen’ (Sedum Immergrunchen) is a robust ground cover with red and green foliage. It blooms from mid to late summer with yellow flowers and goes partially dormant in winter, losing some leaves until re-sprouting in spring. This variety is similar in appearance to Sedum kamtschaticum.

Sedum integrifolium

Sedum integrifolium is distinguished from most other types of sedum succulents by its broad, flat leaves. Sedum rhodanthum also has flat leaves but is distinguished by its red paniculate inflorescence.

Sedum japonicum ‘Tokyo Sun’

Sedum japonicum ‘Tokyo Sun’ is a mat-forming ground cover Sedum that pops bright yellow. It is only hardy to about 10F (zone 8) but it is an eye-catching accent in pots that can overwinter indoors.

The yellow tones need direct sun to stay vibrant and will fade to green if shaded. ‘Tokyo Sun’ stays under 3.0″ tall but spreads and mounds extensively on well-draining soil. Mature Sedum with established roots can tolerate at least a month of drought.

In the summer, large quantities of golden, star-shaped flowers emerge. They add even more depth to this colorful grower and even attract pollinators.

Sedum jurgensenii

Sedum kamtschaticum

Sedum Kamtschaticum, drought-tolerant stonecrop with clusters of star-shaped yellow flowers, begins blooming in late spring. Flowers will mature to bronze. Pleasing foliage all season – scalloped with glossy deep-green fleshy, spoon-shaped leaves. Forms a dense mat that is tinged with red tones in autumn.

Sedum kimnachii

It is in leaf all year, in flower from July to August, and the seeds ripen from August to September. The species is hermaphrodite (has both male and female organs) and is pollinated by Insects. The plant is self-fertile.

Sedum laxum

Sedum laxum ‘Roseflower’ is a native perennial from the mountains of Northern California and Southern Oregon. Roseflower has long, spatulate leaves of glaucous blue-green that stand upright and form a loose rosette. The stems branch readily and spread as a nice, sprawling ground cover. It produces tall bloom stalks with white to pink flowers.

Sedum lineare ‘Variegatum’

Sedum lineare ‘Variegatum’ (also known as carpet sedum, needle stonecrop, or sea urchin) is a tough, low-growing, evergreen succulent up to 6 inches (15 cm) tall and trailing up to 2 feet (60 cm) wide. The leaves are lanceolate, up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) long, pale green with a thin, creamy-white margin.

The new growth on this plant is often upright and then lies down under the weight of the stems and in shade, it tends to grow slightly more open and taller. Though not the main attraction, when this plant flowers in the early summer, the small, bright yellow, starburst flowers appear in short, tight cymes just above the foliage.

Sedum litoreum

Sedum litoreum is a small, erect, glabrous, annual succulent, up to 6 inches (15 cm) tall, usually simple or branched from the base. The leaves are bright green, oblong-elliptic to obovate, and up to 0.8 inches (2 cm) long. The flowers are star-shaped and pale yellow or greenish.

Sedum longipes

Sedum lucidum

Sedum lucidum is a hairless perennial succulent shrub 20 cm high and has distinctive rosettes of very fat, lustrous, green leaves edged in red in bright light.
