What is this?

We moved here last fall and It's been interesting to see what the prior owner had planted. What are these? They are beautiful, very hardy, and have taken over the one area. They make for a good ground covering. They were also one of the first to get green this past spring.

Thank you! :)

The plant about to flower is a sedum, maybe Sedum spectabile or S. telephium.

Wow thank you! I googled Sedum and that is indeed what this plant is. So no only is it a beautiful shade of green in the spring but by fall it will bloom into a pretty flower. Amazing!
Thank you again! :)

In my gardens, sedums are one of the favorites of a huge assortment of pollinating insects.
