Sedum alsinifolium

A small, soft-leaved Sedum endemic to Italy, mostly from the southwestern Alps of Piedmont. Unlike most stonecrops it grows in shaded, damp rock crevices and overhangs, so it wants cool, moist, shaded conditions rather than a hot sunny rockery.

Where it grows wild

Shaded, humid rock fissures, cliff bases and overhangs, often on calcareous rock; a delicate, thin-leaved species that does not tolerate baking sun.

Few records carry an elevation; the main sites are in Alpine valleys around 900 m in Cuneo province.
