A very free-growing variety of Sedwm dasyphyllum, well 
adapted on this account and from its glaucous habit for rock~ 
work cultivation. It is a native of dry rocks and banks in 
Spain, extending thence to Sicily, Corsica, and Calabria, 
ascending in the former country to 7000 feet elevation on 
the Sierra Nevada, and also occurring in North Africa from 
the Atlas to thé Blidah province of Algeria and throughout 
the mountainous regions of Marocco. It is most nearly 
allied to 8. dasyphyllum, as a variety of which it is no doubt 
correctly regarded by Moris in his Flora Sardoa, who ob- 
serves that the amount of glandular pubescence varies 
greatly, and that the petals are obtuse, acute, or shortly 
acuminate in both the original S. dasyphyllum and its variety.
