Sedum hengduanense

A small, little-documented stonecrop of the Hengduan Mountains in western Sichuan, Yunnan and south-east Tibet, recorded at roughly 2,300 to 3,800 m. Treat it like other high-elevation Chinese Sedum: bright light, cool nights, a wet summer and a cold, dry winter.

Where it grows wild

Specific habitat notes are scarce; related Hengduan Sedum grow on rocky slopes, cliff ledges and thin soil among boulders, often in open scrub or grassland.

The three climate sites sit at about 2,300, 2,900 and 3,800 m; most records cluster at the higher end.
