I know I ought to know what this is, but my mind has gone completely blank over it.
TIA.

Definitely not that. I have that and the leaves are very different. Thanks anyway.

Okay, how about Sedum aizoon, maybe the cultivar 'Euphorbiodes'?

I think you've hit it with your second suggestion, Lori.

But I must thank you for the name Sedum kamtschaticum - which is the name I could not remember for a friend the other day as soon as I saw it written in your post I remembered - must phone her now.

That's the one. Thank-you. Phedimus aizoon 'Aurantiacus' is what it called now.
Amazing how one's brain has blackspots on certain plants.
