Mike, is that the "OG" S. hintonii, not S. mocinianum? I am asking out of curiosity only, not questioning the label at all!

Sadly Mat I have no idea. Impulse purchase based on aesthetics not knowledge!

Short inflorescence so more likely S. mocinianum http://www.cactus-mall.com/sedum/hintonii.html

I've been reliably informed (very reliable as per Sedum Ray) that Sedum Hintonii isn't in cultivation and all the plants sold as Sedum Hintonii are Sedum Mocinianum. All my plants are flowering at the moment, hairy leaves, quite large flowers and easy to grow, it should be more popular. All it needs is a botanist to come up with a new genus for hairy leaved Sedums to make it trendy.

I've just binned my ex-plant over the weekend. It was the second one I've killed, never having kept it alive for much more than a year. :lol:
