Tree stonecrop (Sedum dendroideum)
Description
Sedum dendroideum is a small shrub up to 3 feet (90 cm) tall spreading up to 4 feet (1.2 m) wide and rooting along stems to form a large mass. Leaves are 1.5 inch (2.8 cm) long, green, spathulate with an almost ovate leaf that is easily distinguished from the only other similar species, Sedum praealtum, by the presence of subepidermal glands along the leaf margin. The large clusters of small vivid yellow, star-like flowers form above the foliage in late winter and early spring.
