Sedum baileyi

A small, little-known Sedum of southeast China, recorded from low hills in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Jiangxi and nearby provinces. Like its Chinese relatives it most likely grows on moist, partly shaded rock faces in a humid subtropical climate with wet summers and cool, drier winters. Grow it as a moisture-tolerant rock sedum, not a desert succulent.

Where it grows wild

Very little is published for this species; by analogy with related southeast Chinese Sedum it probably colonises mossy rocks, cliff ledges and stony banks in valleys and forest margins.

Recorded sites are at low elevations, roughly 20–300 m, though few records carry an elevation.
