Sedum diminutum

Where it grows wild

Little is published on its habitat; small Mexican sedums of this region typically grow in thin soil pockets and crevices on rock outcrops in scrub and pine-oak zones.

Recorded at roughly 900–2,870 m, median about 1,800 m; the two climate sites sit at 1,800 m and 580 m.
