The species' pedicels are long while the stems are slender and weak with round and flat leaves and yellow colored flowers.[1]

The flowers of Sedum debile have sepals which are pale green and glaucous in color. The lanceolate and equal leaves are 2–4.2 by 1.3–2 millimetres (0.079 in–0.165 in × 0.051 in–0.079 in). Pedicels are 1.2 millimetres (0.047 in) long while the leaves on them are 4.2–7.2 by 2.8–4.3 millimetres (0.17 in–0.28 in × 0.11 in–0.17 in). The apex, while obtuse is also emarginated.[2]

The species flowers during summer months and can be found on elevation of 1,500–3,500 metres (4,900–11,500 ft) in states such as Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah and Wyoming.[2]
