Compared to the photos already posted on this site, they don't look the same to me.

Last year, a neighbor gave me a pot of it and I haven't planted it yet because I haven't had a chance to find out what it is and how to care for it.

These pics are from last year and the leaves don't look so great but it's in bloom.


I just took this picture, and while the leaves look much better, it hasn't begun to bloom yet. I see there's a Hosta in the pot with it as well.


Thanks for your help!

Yes, it looks like some kind of Hylotelephium spectabile:

Needs as much sun as possible, too much water can be detrimental. A very unlikely partner for Hosta (a shade dweller.) I'd separate them.

Interesting. I have paid little attention to this plant(s) since I received it last year. They seem happy together!! lol. I'm surprised they survived.

Lots of sun and not much water is right up my alley! I can handle that! hahaha!

Thanks Tiffany! Appreciate your help.

I agree with Tiffany, it really needs full sun, or mostly sun. The color of the bloom is kind of distinctive. Once we see what it looks like when given more sun we might have a better idea.

It's been in the sun. I'm surprised the Hosta is doing as well as it is. As soon as it blooms again, I'll post updated pics. Thank you.

I look forward to seeing the new blooms.

Me too!!

@springcolor Do you know the ID? It does look familiar and distinct!

No, but when mine bloom I will be on the look out for a bloom like that. Really pretty.

My dad has sedun he uses the leaves for poison ivey or oak bug bites bee stings it works using just leaves I
to rub on a spot

Hey there joellenef. So glad to meet you and a great big to NGA.
Now I'm curious. Do you know which sedum it is that your dad uses?

Joellene Yes I'm curious too! It would be great to know that these plants have a use other than being pretty

It looks like an Autumn Joy that needs a bit more light. I love love that plant.

I am wondering if it is Sedum (Hylotelephium spectabile 'Neon')

Lynn I think you are correct, I have it and it does look pale like that!

It looks more like Hylotelephium spectabile 'Crystal Pink'. Both the foliage and blooms are light colored. It is a short one; I have it on the table garden.

Stonecrop (Hylotelephium spectabile 'Crystal Pink')

I haven't seen that one, and now that I look closer my neon is even paler green leaves.

This short one is just the right size for the table garden. I'll post photo when it blooms!

Yes please!! Thanks for the link Lynn
