Sedum villosum
Sedum villosum, the hairy stonecrop, is a small, glandular-hairy, pink-flowered stonecrop of wet, open mountain flushes and stream margins in northern and western Europe, Iceland and Greenland. Unlike most sedums it wants constant moisture and cool summers, and it is often short-lived, so growers keep it going from seed or offsets.
Where it grows wild
Grows in open, wet, often base-rich spring flushes, mossy seepages, gravelly stream edges and damp rock ledges in uplands and arctic-alpine terrain, rarely in shade.
Records run from sea level in Iceland and Norway to high Alpine and Pyrenean sites, median about 700 m; the further south, the higher it grows.
