plant for id, please?

[rootsical]

hi there.

very puzzled about this plant that i found in my garden in brighton.. it's quite small and has taken over some small pots. i don't think it has any flowers or anything.. was hoping perhaps someone could help with what it might be?

thanks ever so much...

It looks like a small crassula, a rockery cover plant. They usually have starry pink or yellow flowers in summer.

Looks like a Sedum species to me.

thanks for your replies.. i'll check them out..

It is a maritime stonecrop. Don't know which species.

thanks for all the replies. it finally flowered - just now this year.. lovely little star shaped yellow flowers.. so having looked at your answers and looked at wiki and google images I think it is a 'sedum acre' otherwise known as 'stonecrop'. thanks again!

That looks a good match to me!

Try tasting it - Sedum acre has a hot, peppery taste.

I did that once, persuaded by a botanist friend- never again!
