Sedum litoreum
A tiny annual stonecrop, a few centimetres tall, from rocky Mediterranean coasts. It germinates with the autumn rains, flowers in spring and dies in the summer drought, so you grow it from seed each year in a cool, bright, winter-growing regime.
Where it grows wild
Thin soil and rock crevices near the sea, often on limestone, in open sunny Mediterranean scrub and rocky places. The habitat is inferred from the coastal records and genus ecology.
Mostly near sea level (median 30 m), with occasional records up to 1470 m.
