I suspect this is a type of stonecrop. Can someone put a name to it?

    Yes, it's a sedum but difficult to tell them apart until the flowers are fully open.

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Hey thanks for the quick response Bob! I'll add another pic when it's fully popped.

    Thanks Jo. What I like is the very pronounced sawtooth leaf margins. And if it's a pollinator magnet, even better!

    The picture you took of the buds just opening is stunning.  Looks like a greetings card.

    Yes i to think it is a Sedum ,does well with very little water, and the insects love it, so it is easy to look after, so plenty of sun ,good drainage , enjoy!!

    Thanks to everyone who responded. With your help and a bit of Googling I'm happy to label it Sedum spectabile.

    The job's a good'un!
