Sedum telephium (incl. hybrid cvs.)
Autumn Stonecrop (Sedum telephium) is a medium-sized perennial succulent plant native to some regions of the Northern Hemisphere. It has thick, fleshy, jelly-like leaves that come in bright shades of green, yellow and red, depending on the season. It features flat-top clusters of tiny star-shaped yellow flowers that bloom in late summer and early autumn. Autumn Stonecrop is an easy-to-grow plant that grows well in well-drained, soil in full sun to part shade environments. Its drought tolerance makes it ideal for planting in hard-to-maintain areas that are prone to dryness. Its versatility makes it great for garden beds, rock gardens, wall crevices, and as a ground cover.
