Sedum confusum
A small shrubby stonecrop from the central Mexican highlands with glossy, bright green leaf rosettes and yellow star-shaped flowers in late winter to spring. It wants full sun, a frost-light winter that is cool and dry, and summer rain with quick drainage.
Where it grows wild
Grows on rocky slopes, walls and lava outcrops in seasonally dry pine-oak and scrub country of the Mexican plateau edge, rooting into thin pockets of gritty soil.
The few elevation-bearing records sit at about 1,300–1,560 m; the climate sites extend to about 2,300 m, and the species is generally reported from mid to high plateau elevations.
