We have this growing at the side of our house. I'm not sure what it is or if it flowers. I'm assuming it does because there's some dead stems from last year. We're going to plant grass here so I'm wondering if it's worth saving to transplant.
Anyone know what it is?

I believe it's a type of sedum! We have some in our flower beds. 
ETA: Do a Google image search and you'll find some that look similar!

We have that! It is pretty when it blooms. Super easy to take care of.

@meganmp: are the blooms tall? Do you have it in full sun, partial or shade?
@mfa_lady: I think you're right! Where are yours located?
It's classified as a ground cover. Does it spread?

For the life of me, I forget the name but they're super hardly plants. They get tall and mine have pink flowers.

Here's a picture of one in bloom. It's the pink one on the right. Full sun.

@locavore_mama: it's supposed to spread for sure! Ours hasn't spread much, but my mom has some in her flower bed that has spread like wildfire. It's really pretty when it blooms, but ours is in a really shady spot and so hasn't done that well. Good luck!

@locavore_mama: I have mine in both partial and full sun, and they do fabulously. They've spread a bit, not too badly. Love them:)

We have that! It's gorgeous. Ours is in partial sunlight so it hasn't spread and doesn't get very tall. The previous owners had planted it.

I've had good luck splitting them if you decide you like it and want to add a couple more.

It's sedum! It is awesome. It grows great in sun or shade and is easily separated. Literally you can break off a stalk, pull off the leaves, stick it in the ground and it will grow.

@SLR: @mediagirl: @Mrs. Jump Rope: @meganmp: awesome! I want to transplant to an area in partial shade/sunlight. I actually don't want it to spread there so it's good that it hasn't spread for those in shade areas.

@mediagirl: no way! I will have to try that. How soon does it grow? Can I plant it now?

@Mrs. Jump Rope: you can plant it in July and it will grow. It's very sturdy!!
