Sedum kwanwuense

A small stonecrop endemic to the high mountains of northern Taiwan, known from only a handful of records around 2,400 m. It lives in cool, very humid mountain air with mild summers and frosty winter nights, so it wants a cool, bright, airy spot rather than desert treatment.

Where it grows wild

Little is published beyond the original description; like its Taiwanese montane relatives it most likely grows on mossy rocks, cliff ledges or tree bases in cool mixed forest and forest edges.

The measured site sits near 2,400 m; treat it as a cool-montane plant.
