These poor things were uprooted by a neighbour who is making
adjustments to his garden. He sent them to my orphanage but
unfortunately, neither of us could identify them. I'm sure some kind
soul has them in his / her garden and could ID them for me :-)

One of the larger Sedums, probably S.spectabile, see

Sedum spectabile, or one of its hybrids, I think. (It also goes by the
name Hylotelephium spectabile nowadays.)

Thanks gents ! The Sedum has now been planted in an appropriately
sunny spot and is doing very well. I am looking forward to some colour
from it this autumn :-)

Thanks again.
