can anyone recommend a really good purple dwarf sedum?

Something with the foliage colour intensity of Purple Emperor or Karfunkelstein, but max height 20cm or so would be good please. Non-spreading, so max spread around 30cm also.

flower colour is less important, any shades of pink/red/cream. Not yellow.

I don't know much about sedums - have one called "Stewed Rhubarb" though, which is pretty. But there are several dedicated sedum sites and societies:

ooh thanks Ferguson, I hadn't thought of looking for sedum societies, that's a good idea.
