Sedum multicaule

A small, many-stemmed stonecrop of the Himalaya and southwest China, found on mossy rocks, banks and forest margins mostly at 1500–3500 m. It grows under the summer monsoon with a dry, cool winter, so it wants regular summer water, bright but not scorching light and a drier winter.
