I bought this plant at a garden fair last year. Even though I have never had much luck with any sedum, I thought I'd try this one. This spring, to my great surprise, I found it very much alive in a half barrel planter. The light green foliage is a light green which contrasts very well with the dark-leaved grass which had been in the planter. I have transplanted some of this sedum to a spot in the ground and will have to see how vigorous it is.

Found this growing in the sandy soil along a creek. Pretty care free except can't take the full sun. It dies out in those areas and seeks out the shadier area under other plants.

Cute little groundcover. Thriving in clay soil under the fairly dense shade of a crabapple tree. Doesn't spread as rampantly as some other sedums.
