Positive	lincolnitess	On Jun 13, 2006, lincolnitess from Lincoln, NE (Zone 5b) wrote: The saw-tooth leaves of this plant form themselves into neat little rosettes. On June 13 of it's second year in my garden, flower buds are just starting to form and it stands about 10" tall. Very attractive overall.
Positive	sedum37	On Feb 1, 2006, sedum37 from Westford, MA (Zone 5b) wrote: This is one of my favorite sedums! For growing habit, it forms a nice, rounded mound in the rock garden having a nice neat appearance. It will stay content each year if you do not wish to divide it. If you would like to increase your plants, just divide in half. In short order the mound on the mother plant will fill in and your new division will look beautiful.
