To answer your question:
Hylos (especially purples, such as sunsparklers) are hard to identify because they have subtle differences
'Wildfire' is variegated -- but you might own the reverted version as with hylos. 'Firecracker' is not variegated.
Wildfire is much more red and if you were to pluck a leaf off, it would probably be a solid red/vvermillion (assuming it is reverted). If not, the two sides would be light pink/cream/white. 'Firecracker' on the other hand is not variegated, but has bi-colored leavves. If you were to pluck a leaf, it would have a blue/blue-purple area closer to the stem, and redder/purple/violet coloring on the outside, away from the stem.
If possible, could you send a picture of a leaf(s) from each plant you want to identify, and a full picture?

Last year I tried twice and it failed both times. 'Everyone loves my 'Blue Pearl' I love that it adds vertical appeal. I'm not really sure 'cherry tart' and 'firecracker' look that different.

I was hoping we could have a general thread for SunSparkler sedum reviews here! Mainly because I'm tired of searching for each individual one!
I'd love it if you would share your Sunsparkler reviews here! Pros, cons, companion plants, or any thoughts would be very much appreciated.
