Sedum nevadense

A tiny, usually annual stonecrop of the mountains of Spain, southern France and Morocco. It grows from seed in the cool, wet season on shallow soils that stay damp in spring, flowers in late spring or early summer, and dies back as the soil dries in summer. To keep it, you need to collect and re-sow seed each year.

Recorded at 435–2650 m with a median of 1120 m; mostly montane, reaching high in the Sierra Nevada and the Atlas.
