Yes, some of mine always flower some in fall. Especially the low chill types. But it's usually only 5% or less of total fruit buds on the plant. Usually 1% or less. Some like Star have higher chilling needs and don't flower early very much. I try to force some in fall because in my greenhouse it never drops below freezing. This gives me a few fruit in winter or early spring. Last winter I had some great fruit especially from Santa Fe. That variety is usually very sweet and low acid. Because of the cool temperatures in winter the fruit was sweet/tart and unlike anything you'd get in hot weather. Late summer pruning will force some bloom. I probably pruned too late this yr but do have some flowers opening now. Many look just like yours which is kind of half flower and half vegetative. The shoot ends in fruit flowers/buds not vegetative buds like a normal summer shoot. Those fruits if you could save them would be up to double normal size. I'm trying to force those type shoots with the big berries at the end of the shoot fall or spring.

Mary, First I would say relax you really can't do any harm to these guys. I have divided them by simply taking my shovel and cutting them in half right in place not disturbing the one half. I have also dug the entire clump up and cut the plant in half with a saw, replanting one half. I have also dug up and potted pieces of plant material for a swap forgot them under a shrub and re-discovered them three years later still happily growing and ready for this years swap. If your clumps are very large make certain your shovel has a sharp edge as it will be difficult to cut through. What other plants are you growing with your sedum?

Here are 3 seed poems that I have. Friendship Seeds Inside this little package You'll find some friendship seeds. Plant with love and tend with care And guard against the weeds. Friendship seeds are hard to grow The roots take hold with time. But the blooms, which are produced Are the sweetest you will find. The petals will not fade away True friendship never dies. For friends are beautiful flowers In the garden of your life. Faith Faith is as a tiny seed, Planted deep within the soul; Nourished by a trust in God, The seed begins to grow. Quietly it opens, Like a fragrant, blooming flower; Roots reach out to find a home, Enriched by God's great power. There so deep within the soul, Faith becomes a vine; The roots grow deep within the heart, Each tendril entertwined. Then like a tranquil garden, Filled with sweet perfume; Faith blooms forth is color, From every fragrant bloom. Then as the season's come and go, And blooms begin to die; There still is life within the soul, From the seed of faith inside. The Seed One Little Thoughtful word Is all we need, ÂCause when you have heard That warm and caring seed Planted by a smiling friend, It grows within you, without end.
