Dear FOLKS, you  are confusing me....

It's  not saying much that its 100% Crassulaceae...
which is  a large family of diverse succulents...

Sedum group belongs to family  Crassulaceae...
so does a  group called Crassula...

and structurally the Crassula and Sedum share sooooo
many features that a single photograph may not be enough for ID...
One needs (as I do as a NON-TAXONOMIST, NON- BOTANIST)
to observe the plant ... its growing habits, branching, leaf anatomy,
 branch/stem anatomy and nodes....
flowers... size shape anatomy and seasons it flowers and how often....

Sedums generally are ground hugging, almost always no more
 than 6 inches high, often trailing branches... often growing 10 to
12
inches or more long... I have grown some sedums where the trailing
branches grew 10 or 12 inches ..before flowering...

Crassulas (where Jade plants belong)  can be supine on delicate stems
or
 (mostly) erect on thickish stems...


SO AARTI JI: HAS TO WRITE UP THE HISTORY OF THIS PLANT...
 ha ha ... or observe it for a while...and take pictures over time...


AND NEIl ji's Anacampseros filamentosa.belongs to Portulacaceae..
so it would be beneficial for Aartiji to see what kind of flower
develops...

UNTILL THEN... I WOULD WAIT FOR SOME ONE SPECIALIZING
IN THE TAXONOMY OF SUCCULENTS and CACTI....

Thanks
Usha di
