I posted this one on the houseplant forums also. Burro's Tail Sedum, or Lamb's Tail. Either way it's a beautiful, easy plant to grow. Enjoy and Happy Holidays!

    Actually, Burro's Tail is the big one. This is one of the forms, which is x. Sedeveria 'Harry Butterfield'...

    Your's is "Little Burrito" or Sedum 'Burrito', I believe. A nice one, I might add!

    Yes, I agree with Denise (but a species name), Sedum burrito. Nice plant you have there!

    Please help my mother had a beautiful one and I put it in a corner where it was apparently too cold or something now it is just about dead and I don't want that to happen. What can I do to bring it back, before it's too late? I only have a very small piece left and I don't want to lose it, it had 12 or more runners that were 5 to 7 foot long. I've tried root starter, repotted it in baked dirt and nothing is working; please I can't find one anywhere around here where I live. I live in upstate NY and no one around here has even heard of them.

    Hi Chris,

    Generally it's best to start a separate thread for a new question, but ...

    In response, take any remaing leaves & place them ON TOP OF, not in, a fast draining mix (or some of its original soil), they don't need rooting hormone.

    Give them bright, indirect light & leave them alone for a while (in upstate NY, your brightest window would do OK). DO NOT WATER until you see new growth, then water lightly or maybe mist the surrounding soil only, not the plant (it will rot it). Over time, they'll start growing little rootlets & or baby leaves.

    Sorry to hear of this loss, but pls. know that no amount of fussing over this will help this along. I often accidentally knock leaves off mine while reaching for something else. I just throw the leaves on top of the mix & forget abt them for a month or so, then I check back & start watering when I see a bit of new growth. Good luck!
