Phedimus selskianus, a type derived from peripheral regions of China and Russia, where it grows on rocky hillsides and forest clearings. Sedum selskianum is very exceptional in its appearance and unmistakable with other species. Unlike other plants, is a species in all parts finely hairy. The narrow hairy leaves, flowers and ciliary densely downy stems are the main points of identification. The flowers are yellow, similar to the type of Sedum kamtschaticum.

The plant produces relatively large, woody, procumbent stems. The leaves are smooth and shiny as a sedum Sedum kamtschaticum elacombinaum. Sedum selskianum creates a very rich bright yellow flowers, flowers pětičetných. Unlike Sedum kamtschaticum Karpel maturation passes into the red. Cultivation is not difficult. Full sun and drenážové, raised sklace place in this plant is fully sufficient for healthy growth.

Thanks to various sources, I met in the collection are two different forms of this plant. One is robust with very strong opýřením, the second form is the smaller, less procumbent, with wider leaves and less opýřená significantly more flowering. It is possible that this is a hybrid with Sedum Kamtschaticum, which was distributed in shops in the UK.

Due to similarities with other types of flowers is Sedum selskianum very confused, and CSTO business network type is sold under elacombinaum Sedum Sedum selskianum bad name. If you have purchased Takva plant, there is nothing jednudššího than to verify whether it is finely hairy or not. Definitely worth this kind of attention and inclusion in cultivation, thanks to the extraordinary appearance.
