Phedimus daeamensis

A Korean stonecrop, apparently named for Daeamsan in Gangwon Province, known from very few records. Like its relatives it is a cold-hardy, winter-dormant perennial of rocky mountain sites: grow it outdoors in bright light with a real winter chill and sharp drainage.

Where it grows wild

Presumed to grow on rocky outcrops, rock crevices and thin soil in the mountains of northern South Korea, as other Korean Phedimus do. No wild records are available, so this is inferred from the genus.

Unknown from records; the name points to Daeamsan, whose upper slopes reach about 1,300 m, well above the 505 m site used for the climate.
