Sedum multiceps

Winter growth

 This is an attractive, small, branching sedum.  Leaves grow at the ends of the branches, giving it a "tree-like" appearance.  Some say it looks like a miniature yucca, especially with the dead leaves accumulating under the new growth.  This is a winter grower, but can be watered occasionally in summer.   One of my favorite sedums!


Same plant in summer

    1. I think it looks more like a pine than a yucca too! ;-)

    1. This plant should do fine in tropical regions. It is a autumn and winter grower, so be careful not to over water in the warmer months. Good luck!
