Sedum bracteatum

A little-known Sedum listed only for Libya, almost certainly from the Mediterranean north (Cyrenaica's Jebel Akhdar or the Tripolitanian hills) rather than the Sahara. Treat it like other small Mediterranean stonecrops: winter growth in sun, a dry summer, and very sharp drainage.

Where it grows wild

Probably rocky limestone slopes, crevices and thin soils in Mediterranean scrub, as with related North African Sedum. No wild records were available, so this is inferred from the genus.

No elevation data; the Libyan coastal uplands reach about 900 m.
