Helping the world one seed at a time

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. Mary Ann LaPensee

that might be hens-chicks. sempervivum.

could also be in the graptopetalum family, too.

i hate it when they don't tell you anything other than 'succulent'!! there are so many and some do have different requirements.

Kenny,
I had a plant that looked exactly like what you posted and you said it had a yellow flower on it don't laugh but mine had a label and it was called "Sedum Burrito Giant" and it has yellow and orange flowers. It grows proficiently.
I found the soil liked to get somewhat dry and then took a good drink. I enjoyed mine until a baseball game broke out in my living room. ughhhhhhhhh. Boys got to love them. Enjy your new plant.
