Can anyone identify this little plant for me? I'm pretty sure it's a type of sedum, but the tag was missing. I have several types of sedums in my garden, but haven't seen this one.
Before I plant it, I want to make sure it will survive in Zone 8.
The leaves look like a dischidia, but I've never seen one as beautiful as this. I know there's a pepperomia with similiar coloring. I'll look through some of my succulent books and get back with you.

I'm so glad you were able to ID this plant. I have spent the last couple hours looking through my plant books. I love this plant! I hope I can find one. I knew I couldn't sleep until someone solved this mystery!!!

Thank you so much Carlos! Now I at least know that it won't be able to handle the frost, and I'll have to shelter it over the winter.
Believe it or not, I bought this at a hardware store. They get the most unique plants, but unfortunately, some of them won't survive our winters outside.
Thanks Chris for taking the time to look into this also.
