'Herbstfreude' is a herbaceous perennial growing in clumps up to 0.60m. It has a succulent stem and fleshy, oblong green leaves with widely spread teeth. The flowers are usually a large terminal flat clusters of star-shaped flowers. The flowers open with greenish-pink buds which then rapidly transform through pale pink to finally turn deep pink. In the autumn they become pink-brown.I found this plant on the roof garden in the School of Art. Sedum have the ability to store water because of their leaves and are usually used as a roof plant. It was growing with few other plants in the planting bed and it was not very densely planted.
