The owner, from whom I received it, said it was Sedum reflexum 'Sea Gold'. But from what I read here, this is not Sea Gold? Or is there a different Sea Gold?

The white, tinged yellow (sea gold?), new growth does not happen with the initial spring growth. It only occurs in subsequent summer growth.

Yep, that certainly does look like 'Sandy's Silver Crest'. It is an awesome Petrosedum, you will love it.
