Sedum flaccidum

A little-recorded Mexican stonecrop known from the high plateau and sierra edge of Durango at around 2,000 m. Grow it like other highland Mexican Sedum: very bright light, cold dry winters with frost-free nights near freezing, and regular water only in the summer monsoon.

Where it grows wild

Only two wild records exist, both near one site in Durango. Highland Mexican Sedum of this kind usually grow on rock outcrops, ledges and thin soil in open pine-oak country; this is inferred from the genus, not documented for the species.

The recorded site sits at about 2,060 m; the true elevation range is unknown.
