Can someone tell me what type of sedum this is? Several years ago I was in a plant swap and received 5 different little sedum plants. One of them has grown a bit. This sedum looks like a tiny little evergreen tree. Well now it looks more like a little evergreen Forres, very cute. I planted it by a big rock along the edge of my waterfall and it has sent itself over the edge down to the pond and has dipped a little part of itself into the water. Must have been thirsty. I can take a picture and post if need be. Thank you.
Happy Gardening :-)

A pic may help you get a positive id. The folks on the Sedum forum know a lot about them.

It looks like one of the Petrosedum rupestre. All are tough and fast growing, wonderful sedum.
Here is a list of some of them. http://garden.org/plants/searc...

And one of my very favorites in this genus. Pale Stonecrop (Petrosedum sediforme 'Turquoise Tails')

It sure looks like a match to me. I was going to say it looks similar to my Angelina but didn't want to look stupid. Glad to know they are in the same genus.

I picked up Sedum (Petrosedum rupestre subsp. rupestre 'Angelina') and Stonecrop (Sedum SunSparkler® Lime Zinger) about a month ago from lowes. I also just got in my 3 sedums from michigan bulb company this week. That's all so far.
