Description
Petrosedum forsterianum, formerly known as Sedum forsterianum, is a succulent plant with branches that trail along the ground and linear, more or less flattened leaves arranged into terminal loose cone-like rosettes. The branches grow up to 8 inches (20 cm) long. Leaves are green or glaucous, elliptic in cross-section, and up to 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) long. The dead leaves persist on the branches.
The flowers are star-shaped, usually 5- to 7-merous, and appear in clusters on terminal erect, up to 12 inches (30 cm) tall inflorescences in summer.
This species is often mistaken for Petrosedum rupestre, a similar but more robust species found in identical habitats and differing in having no dead leaves below the terminal rosettes.
Origin
Petrosedum forsterianum is native to Western Europe and Morocco. It grows from sea level up to 4,920 feet (1,500 m
