zuzu said:Dianne, you didn't originally list this one. You asked me to create an entry for Sedum 'Golden Glow,' and the one I found on the Web was Sedum adolphi 'Golden Glow.' I hadn't seen your photos at the time I created the entry.

Stonecrop is merely a common name. The genus Sedum no longer has 300 species. Many of its species have been redefined as species of other genera. Sedum rupestre has become Petrosedum rupestre subsp. rupestre.

Lemon Ball is still a Sedum (Sedum mexicana).

I can create a new entry for Petrosedum rupestre subsp. rupestre 'Aztec Gold' and move your photos there, or I can move them to Sedum mexicana 'Lemon Ball,' but the latter is said to spread to 24 inches. Is that true of your sedum?


Yes, I tried to find my earlier post but net service keeps losing my place ..

This sedum, as I posted pics, is a 'crawler' type sedum with a slightly mounding habit. It will spread indefinitely as the plant takes root as it spreads. looks like one big spreading plant, but made of many bits that even fall off .. when planted in planters & hanging baskets, it just spills over the sides.

I think my reply to s'one said I've grown this for ages & known it as 'Aztec Gold' (& I think it also became a retail name, as I've seen it on labels in nurseries here) .. I really don't know it otherwise, than as a sedum.
I shall leave it up to you as Admin as to where it goes .. I tip my hat to you. ps. it is very lime green, going pink/copper tipped in the cold.
