Date/Time- 09-04-2011 / 04:00 PM This should be Crassulaceae, may be some Rhodiola! i hope Sedum sexangulare Oh… sorry!! Sedum sexangulare Many thanks … Is S. mexicanum a synonym for S.sexangulare or a different species?
Crassulaceae, Combretaceae and Myrtaceae Fortnight: Sedum sexangulare : 9 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (1). I think Sedum sexangulare. same question whole plant?? It is complete plant. I have cropped only the pot. It was only upto 10cm in height. Sedum sexangulare and S. rupestre look very similar the differences are Sir, leaves were less than 1cm and plants were only 10cm tall. Size can also be judged from the size of small bee. and petals? Also no leaf rosettes in S. sexangulare, present in rupestre Sir, as not a taxonomist by training, I always miss many things to judge. Not noted in that detail. Will try to record in next growing season.
