The difference between creeping vine and sedum

1. Different varieties

Sedum is a perennial succulent herb, also known as stone nail, melon seed grass, dog tooth grass, and dog tooth petals. It is a plant of the Crassulaceae family and the Sedum genus. It likes to grow in dark and humid places and can withstand the cold.

Sedum is very similar to the former and can also be used as medicine. It belongs to the Crassulaceae family like the former, but it is essentially not the same plant. It is also called fire grass, flame grass, dogtooth grass, golden sedge, etc., which are different from the former and can be distinguished if you look carefully. It has strong adaptability and generally grows on low mountains or flat grass slopes.

2. Different leaves

The leaves of the creeping grass are arranged in whorls of three. Each leaf is relatively wide, oblanceolate to oblong in shape, about 1.5-2.5 cm in length, and the base is wedge-shaped and relatively flat.

The leaves of Sedum are also arranged in three whorls, but the leaves are different. Its leaves are narrower than the former and have a rounder feel overall. They are also longer than the former, about 2-2.5 cm long. They can be distinguished by width, but the difference in length is very slight and difficult to tell.
