Sedum kawaraense
A Japanese stonecrop described in 2023, with no georeferenced wild records yet. Its name refers to the Japanese word kawara, a riverbed gravel bar, which suggests it grows on open stony river banks. Treat it as a hardy, sun-loving Sedum with cold, snowy winters and wet summers.
Where it grows wild
The name points to open gravel riverbeds; this is an inference, as no habitat account was opened. Such habitats are sunny, sharply drained and periodically disturbed by floods.
Elevation is unknown; the single measured site is a regional point at 645 m in central Honshu.
