Sedum lenkoranicum

A poorly documented stonecrop named after Lankaran (Lenkoran) in the Talysh region, listed for northern Iran and the Transcaucasus. The only measured site is high in the Georgian Caucasus, so the climate figures here are probably far colder than much of its range; treat it as a hardy rock sedum that needs bright light, sharp drainage and a cool winter.

Where it grows wild

Its habitat is unrecorded in sources available to us. Caucasian and Hyrcanian Sedum typically grow on rocks, screes and stony slopes, in open sun or at the edges of woodland.

The single measured site is about 2,700 m in the Greater Caucasus; the Talysh part of the range probably extends much lower.
