Sedum cepaea, the pink stonecrop, is a species of flowering plant in the family Crassulaceae. It has a Mediterranean distribution, but generally in the mountains, and extending into France as far north as Paris, and it has been introduced to Belgium, Germany, and, it seems, New Zealand. A bushy, succulent annual, it can reach 30 cm (12 in).

💡 Golden sedum is a beautiful succulent with spoon-shaped leaves and a lotus-like form. Each leaf has a small tip at its end. The plant appears golden or yellow-green, making it instantly charming and delightful at first sight.
