Sedum is a very large genus of about 600 species in the family Crassulaceae, which includes Jade plant, Kalanchoe and Hens and Chicks.

Sedum, also called stonecrop, came from a Latin word, sedere, meaning "sit" as in sitting atop the stones, according to about.com:landscaping.

Sedum is considered a plant for all seasons. I leave most of the flowers to dry on the plants all through the winter months.
