SOLVED: Can anyone tell me what this creeping groundcover is called in English, and it's scientific name? Locally here in eastern Mexico it's called "semilla de melon" presumably for the melon seed shape of the leaves. The leaves are 3/4" long max, most of them in the picture are 1/2" or less. Thanks, Carmen

ID this groundcover?
Maybe a type of Sedum, Stone-Crop.

Need to see flowers to be sure.
Thanks for the quick response, I think you're right. Going thru the sedums, I'm now pretty confident it's Sedum lineare, needle or pincushion stonecrop.
You're very welcome!
Sedum lineare 'Variegatum' may be the cultivar.
