Sedum nokoense

A small, creeping stonecrop endemic to Taiwan's central mountains. It grows on mossy rocks, and sometimes on tree bases, in cool, constantly humid montane forest around 1400–3000 m. Unlike most Sedum it wants shade-tolerant, humid, never-baked conditions.

Where it grows wild

Mossy rock faces, banks and tree bases in montane cloud forest. This is inferred from the high, humid sites where it is recorded and from similar Taiwanese mountain Sedum.

Elevations from 579 to 3100 m with a median of 2300 m, though only 8 records carry an elevation.
