Sedum apoleipon

A small stonecrop endemic to central and western Greece, recorded on rocky ground from near sea level to about 500 m. It lives with cold, wet winters and hot, dry summers, so it wants full sun, very sharp drainage and a cool winter rather than year-round warmth.

Where it grows wild

Little is published on this species; like most small Greek Sedum it is assumed to grow in rock crevices, stony slopes and thin soil over rock in open Mediterranean scrub. This is inferred from the genus and the record locations, not from a habitat study.

Wild records span 85–515 m (median 260 m), in the hills of Epirus, Aetolia and Thessaly.
