Sedum modestum

A small, little-documented stonecrop endemic to Morocco, recorded from the High and Anti-Atlas and Middle Atlas foothills at about 300–2000 m. Treat it like other Mediterranean-mountain rock sedums: full sun, very sharp drainage, cool moist winters and a hot, dry summer.

Where it grows wild

Recorded on rocky slopes in the Atlas ranges; detail on its microhabitat is not published beyond herbarium notes, so this follows the habits of related Moroccan rock sedums growing in crevices and thin soil over rock.

Records span 275–2000 m with a median of 1300 m; most sites sit in the mid-elevation Atlas foothills.
