Sedum is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Crassulaceae, members of which are commonly known as stonecrops. The genus has been described as containing up to 600 species of leaf succulents that are found throughout the Northern Hemisphere, varying from annual and creeping herbs to shrubs. The plants have water-storing leaves. The flowers usually have five petals, seldom four or six. There are typically twice as many stamens as petals. Many sedums are cultivated as garden plants, due to their interesting and attractive appearance and hardiness.

         

The leaves of all stonecrops are edible. Sedum acre was used as a medicinal to treat epilepsy and skin disease, as well as an abortifacient in ancient Greece. Sedum can be used to provide a roof covering in green roofs, where they are preferred to grasses. Most Sedum species are well suited to pot culture and do very well in rockeries.

Sedum pachyphylum has various common names which include Many Fingers, Jelly Beans and Jelly Bean Plant. The leaves are club-shaped and glaucus pale green in colour. In full sun with little water, the tips of the leaves turn a beautiful reddish colour. This is very much an upright grower and will reach up to 35cm in height. Sometimes the stems will bend down from the weight of their succulent leaves. It is a reliable little plant that produces masses of yellow flowers during spring. It will tolerate some light frost if the soil is kept dry. It is also a good indoor plant for a sunny window. This Mexican native plant grows well in gardens and rockeries throughout South Africa. It is cold hardy to -7°C and some say it can handle temperatures closer to -17°C. They are heat resistant and drought tolerant too. Irrigate more or repot when plants drop lower leaves. This is a great plant for a soil pocket on a wall, as a container specimen or in a hanging basket.
