Hello,

Sorry ro say, but this has nothing to do with Sedum acre.
I don't know which plant this is but in any case NO SEDUM!!
greetings,
Albert

Hmmm... I had it originally in my garden as Creeping Jenni but was told it's sedum acre. This is the original thread:

Crimson, we've had several debates over this sedum :o) I think we finally decided it's true ID is sedum sarmentosum - Gold moss, or Stringy stonecrop. http://plantsdatabase.com/go/1893/ Here is another thread from the ID forum.

However, I think this sedum IS sold incorrectly in the US as sedum acre - lol ... and the debate goes on...

The image was located on both entries; I've deleted one, and moved the hyperlink to the correct entry :)

This moss is so hardy that it grew from a 4 square inch planting and is now a sqare 2 feet section within 6 months. It has a very nice lime green tint to it. A very nice ground cover.
