Kris Lee on Jun 14, 2013I thought Sedum was a low growing ground cover? This one gets to be about 18-20" high. I have something I think is sedum. It spreads all over and is impossible to get rid of. It is pretty, but invasive. This plant has stayed this size, no spreading at all. In fact this past December it was dug up when our foundation was redone. I thought it was gone all together. It sat underneath the snow all winter and I found it this spring when the snow melted. I took it and placed it into another garden and it has grown beautifully this spring. So it is very hardy.Helpful Reply

Kris Lee on Jun 14, 2013Well well, I just looked it up on Google and it is infact a Sedum Autumn Joy! Thanks for your help. Now I know. HMMMM, I guess I'll have to get pictures of the invasive plant I thought was sedum and post it for another round of "guess that plant" LOLHelpful Reply

Julie @ Wife, Mother, Gardener on Jun 14, 2013Kris- The name "Sedum' is an entire genus of plants, so there are hundreds of different types ranging from low ground covers to taller ones, like the one you have. And many are worth having! Their succulent leaves help them to thrive in very dry conditions. The taller Sedums flop less if you pinch off 2-3 inches of their shoots in June... they become bushier and regrow their blooms in time for fall :)Helpful Reply

Lori J on Jun 15, 2013I believe this is AUTUMN JOY SEDEM--looks just like mine. They bloom in muted red or pink and spread like wildfire. When you notice them getting drooping from the center, you will know it is time to divide them.Helpful Reply

Carolyn on Jun 19, 2013They are really easy to divide. It is probably best done in the spring, but they are so hardy you can do it any time if you really need to. We call them live-forevers, because they really do. Just take a spade and cut down through the root. You can also dig the whole plant up and divide the root with a sharp knife. You can even break off a small piece of the stem and put it directly into the garden if your soil is loose and you can keep it moist.Helpful Reply
