1. Autumn Joy
2. Neon
3. Don't Know!
4. Purchased this one at a garden club sale. I like it! It is unidentified.
5. Variegated. I just put this in a few months ago. I don't know if their seed heads get more dramatic than this.

I like the Neon too! And the variegated, mainly because I love variegated plants

My mom's landscaper had a couple varigated in his truck and he gave them to me. They're just now getting ready to bloom now. My autumn joys were really dark red this year. Almost burgundy. I don't know why, but I'm not complaining.
Those are very pretty.

Lucky you on the free variegated sedum! Did they get tiny little flower heads like mine or do they normally have larger ones?

I have the same white one that you do- just a hint of pink.
Wish I knew what kind it is- I rescued mine from a house that was going to be torn down.

I think I'm going to do more seedum next spring. Mine never needed any special attention...I put them right up there with butterfly bush. Had to cut it back a few days ago, as it was starting to sprawl outwards, and the stems I cut still have shown no signs of wilt.

Your sedum looks great. I have autumn joy, a purple leaved variety, a varigated variety, and a yellow flowering low growing variety. I love them, this is only my second year growing them though.

A lot of people said they had to cut theirs back this year due to all the rain. They root so easily too. You can stick all those cuttings in the ground for new plants!
