Sedum alberti

A small, rarely cultivated stonecrop from the mountains and foothills of Central Asia, where it faces hot, dry, very bright summers and long, frozen winters. Treat it as a hardy alpine-steppe succulent: full sun, sharp drainage and a cold winter rest.

Where it grows wild

Probably grows on stony and rocky slopes, screes and dry steppe in the Tian Shan, Altai and Pamir foothills. Little is published about this species; habitat is inferred from the measured range and from related Central Asian Sedum.

Recorded at about 730–2,280 m, median around 1,400 m, but only 7 records carry an elevation.
