Hi. I would consider myself a recreational wikipedian. I enjoy perusing articles for bits of interesting information, and am happy to fix typos or organize images along the way. I make all my edits in good faith, and hope that they will add to the collective input to improve whatever I fiddle with. However, if I manage to royally screw something up, please let me know so I can fix it and refrain from repeating the mistake. Also, I'm really rusty on my rules for citations and copyrights, so feel free to point me in the right direction on those too. I hail from Northern California, so I tend to pay special attention to pages related to that topic or region. Other favorites include Metallica, rugby union, guitar and video games, natch.
Thanks!
Sedum acre, commonly known as the biting stonecrop, is a perennial
flowering plant in the family
Crassulaceae. It is native to Europe, North Africa and parts of Asia, and is naturalised in other places such as North America and New Zealand. It is a low-growing plant which is adapted for growth on thin dry soils, being found on terrain including dry grassland, beaches, drystone walls and roadside verges. The plant forms mat-like stands up to 12 centimetres (5 inches) tall. For most of the year the stems are short with dense leaf coverage, but during the flowering season in June and July, the stems lengthen and become erect. This
S. acre plant with a length of 3.5 centimetres (1.4 inches) was photographed in
Niitvälja, Estonia.
