bluish-purple low sedum


Question
I have a low (4" height) sedum that I can't identify.  Of course, I didn't save the tag.  I believe it was a stonecrop variety.  It immediately grows a bluish tinted foliage with purple edges.  Petite but outstanding plant because of its color. I want more but difficult to find in greenhouses here in Maine so am thinking I need to order from away but can't seem to find it via internet.  Can you help me with the proper name of this sedum?

Answer
Hi April,
Thanx for your question.  It sounds to me like you are describing
Sedum cauticola Stonecrop - Lidakense.  Here's a link with pictures.  I hopet his helps.
Tom
