Morphological characteristics of Sedum clavatum
Sedum clavatum is a perennial subshrub, much branched, often producing new shoots from the lower part of the stem, forming clustered growth.
The leaves are spatulate, alternate, arranged in a rosette shape. The leaf surface is smooth and covered with white powder. The front side is relatively flat, and the back side is slightly raised; the leaves are thick and fleshy, emerald green or tender green.
Under conditions of sufficient light and large temperature differences, small red dots appear at the leaf tips, and the leaf color turns light green or yellow-green, just like frozen translucent jade fat that seems ready to burst at a touch, hence the name Sedum clavatum.
Sedum clavatum has two different forms. One has relatively narrow and long leaves with less frosty powder; the other has wider leaves with more frosty powder, but both forms belong to Sedum clavatum.
In spring, it produces clusters of small white flowers with pink stamens.
