This is very similar to sedum album, except for a few minor details:
The stems of potosinum age to a deep red color, and the overall color of the plant has more blue in it, than the sedum album.

It also seems to stay less covered with the little "leaves", nearest the beginning of the stems, thus exposing and showing off the red stems.

The flowers are a lovely white/peach.

I love the look of this one cascading over a rock wall, or planter. It drapes & cascades quite nicely.
