Sedum obtusatum, commonly known as Sierra stonecrop, is a resilient mat-forming succulent perennial native to the rocky mountain habitats of the Western United States. It features dense basal rosettes of waxy, spoon-shaped leaves that transition from blue-green to vibrant red or bronze in dry conditions. During summer, upright stalks bear clusters of star-shaped flowers in shades of yellow, white, or orange. This low-maintenance plant is ideal for rock gardens, containers, and xeriscaping.
