We inherited this plant from my wife's auntie, who had it for years. It has survived a move from a temperate to a colder climate where it has thrived on neglect. Propagation seems to be a very hit and miss experience. Its very drought tolerant and attractive to spiders. Quiet happy in a pot and a great conversation piece.
As stated above...this one is, indeed, hard to find.
Mine is simply a sport of my green S. sieboldii. I'd looked for YEARS and found this plant with the variegated sport within a display of many regular S. sieboldii.
Have grown it 3 years, with varying temps, both hot and well below zero.
I've found it difficult to propagate, though I'll continue to try!

I have several sedums in my garden, and this one is at the top of my favorites list. I bought it a couple of years ago, before I was keeping good records, and I can't remember where I bought it. Luckily, it's doing well, and a piece that broke off has started another plant after I stuck it in the dirt.
If you see this sedum at your local nursery, don't hesitate to buy it, because it seems to be a little hard to find.
