Jovibarba is a subgenus of Sempervivum ... or not !
You can read information here:http://stalikez.info/fsm/~root/xhome.ph … ot_semp/1a
http://stalikez.info/fsm/semp/site/jov_ … f1i1r1zu1g
patens is synonym of S. (Jov.) heuffelii heuffelii
Thank you for the links! I only can not agree with the other statement. I've seen both plants in the wild and they look completely different (almost difficult to believe that they are actually classified as one species)
var. heuffelii is with green leaves, on both sides with glandular trichomes
var. patens is with glaucous leaves, and trichomes only on the leaf margin
Also they are geographically separated, so I'm sure they deserve to be treaten as varieties.

What happened to genus Jovibarba? It became subgenus of Sempervivum?
And why there are no variations of Sempervivum heuffelii listed in the site? I know at least 2 : Sempervivum heuffelii var. heuffelii and Sempervivum heuffelii var. patens, but probably my information is quite old. 
Please enlighten me on this topic or share links where I can read about it.

It's Sedum hirsutum.

This plant was erroneously labelled as Sedum multiceps. It has a lot of heads for sure, but still is not its correct name. I tried to find it myself but I couldn't and now I'm just too curious to let it go. 
I'm not sure about its genus, also I haven't seen any flowers, but if you know it or bump on picture of it, keep me in mind. 
It stays low, and is quite stoloniferous.
My guess would be Sedum hirsutum ssp. hirsutum

There are different types of variegation. 'Sandy's Silver Crest' has beautiful crown variegation. Some plants have stripe variegation, others like mine have chimeric variegation, some variegation may look chimeric but to propagate true to type vegetatively without meristem tissue, and so on.
By the slow-growing thing I assume he meant chimeric variegation, because there is a very little chlorophyll in it (and in this particular case)
We cleared the parents (almost), we cleared the variegation, now only left to compare the appearance of both plants before I can consider mine as a new cultivar. As soon as possible I will post picture of mine, but we need a picture of Sea Gold too.

I doubt that. It's written in the link "I'm afraid mine has reverted to the green form." So probably 'Sea Gold' was variegated sport of the green rupestre (whatever that means), but still remain unknown what kind of variegation it was bearing and if it was the same in appearance with mine.

Nasty nurseries... bring only chaos with those tricks. What about 'Sea Gold' it must be yellowish again, but with variegated foliage. It's kind of mythical though, I've never seen a picture of it.
My whole problem with those golds is that I found a variegated chimera sport of P. rupestre 'Angelina' and trying to find if it already exist I got totally tangled with no or false information. 
Thank you for your contribution, now at least I know the parent name. Weee!

I saw 'Gold' in our Botanical garden. It's very possible the name only to refer to the colour of the plant and not to an actual variety. 'Aureum' however is accepted name form the RHS and pops up in a lot of places.

Here I found some non commercial photos of it.
PS: And the 'Gold' one:

Speaking of which, I was wondering are there more golden forms of P. rupestre than 'Angelina'? I've seen 'Gold' and 'Aureum' while searching the net, but I don't know if they are separate cultivars, or synonyms of 'Angelina'
