Where it grows wild

The records cluster in hot, humid lowland country near the Veracruz–San Luis Potosí border, where small Sedum usually grow on limestone outcrops and rocky banks in seasonal forest. Specific habitat notes for this species were not found.

Recorded at 150–366 m, median 300 m, which is unusually low and warm for a Mexican Sedum.
