Phedimus selskianus

Phedimus selskianus is a species of succulent flowering plant from the Crassulaceae family. Phedimus selskianus was originally described, in 1861, as Sedum selskianum. In 1931 it was demoted to a subspecies of Sedum aizoon. In the most recent classification of the crassulacean plants, the species is placed in the genus Phedimus rather than Sedum. One of the most distinctive features of Phedimus selskianus within the Phedimus subgenus Aizoon is the presence of conspicuous glandular hairs, setting it apart from closely related species.
