This is too funny - I can't look at this plant without thinking of a Speedo....

LOL!
Nope, this one is actually variety "Faro Island". I used to have Burro's Tail, but I managed to kill it (left it outside and it froze). This one is quite winter hardy here and turns the most lovely shade of red in the fall/winter. That is a pretty close up shot - the whole clump is only about 7 - 8 inches wide. Each of those little tiny jelly bean shaped things are about the size of a pin head.

Okay not I'll have to go out and get a photo so you can help me out here as I'm sure this lady didn't know her sedums! Got to wait for this storm to pass, I don't do thunder and lightening. Strange for us to have this up here!
