Question
Sedum growing by patio in a planting of Catmint (it was not planted, just arrived by itself), might it be Sedum album?: alternate leaves, 5 part white flowers (did see a few 6 pt), 10 stamens (dark anthers), I think 5 ovaries. Low growth covers the soil and flower clusters are growing on erect stalks. An attractive interesting plant: I've let it grow and flower. With hand lens I think I see fine hairs on stalk of inflorescence. I haven't used microscope. Carol Knox -Falmouth, MA
Answer
Dear Carol, good morning. Yes, your images look like Sedum album (Crassulaceae). The characters you mention and the images are all consistent with that species. Best wishes.
