Anyone know what kind of plant this is? The bumble bees love it, and are

that looks like the flowers of a succulent/sedum. the other fliers love
it too (the assorted little wasp like fairy fliers. All my sedums, aka
Matrona, Raspberry ice, Autumn Joy, Lynda Windsor, Kamtschaticum
Variegata,Angelina, Turkish stars, Little pickles, the old fashioned
green ones that have white star-like flowers, they all attract the
fliers, the bumblies, the wasps and teensy wasp like things. I've taken
some awesome pictures of these gorgeous flowers. And the Sempervivums
(hens and chickens) which are succulents as well and hardy also have
flowers that are similar.
