Deer are a real nuisance.
However, all Sedum are considered to be deer resistant. Some are more resistant than others but the deer will avoid them all.
However, from personal experience, I can say that even though a plant is "deer resistant" the deer will pull it up anyway. They won't eat it, mind you, they'll just pull it up. Whether the deer are just trying to thin out plants that they don't like, or whether it's just being plain malicious (the option I prefer to believe), they sometimes just decide to pull whatever it is up.
I have yet to see a deer pull up any Sedum in our display beds though, despite one of the Lewisia plants (which are suppose to be native with the deer), getting the proverbial axe. I hope this helps!
