A succulent stonecrop subspecies endemic to the Maltese Islands, growing on sea cliffs and rock faces, with fleshy rosettes and small white flowers. Give it full sun, sharp drainage and very sparing water.
Sedum album subsp. rupimelitense is a plant subspecies belonging to the Crassulaceae family. It is an endemic taxon in the Maltese Islands and is found growing on sea cliffs and rock faces. This taxon is often referred to as the Maltese stonecrop due to its growth on rocky outcrops.
Sedum album subsp. rupimelitense is found exclusively in the Maltese Islands, where it is endemic. It is found growing on rocky outcrops and sea cliffs on the islands of Malta and Gozo. The plant is not known to grow anywhere else in the world. The population is usually divided into small fragments, with the exception of a 1.5km stretch between Rdum Dikkiena and San Ġorġ tal-Fawwara. The population's strict rock-dwelling habitat is gradually decreasing due to natural causes like erosion, landslides, and cliff collapses.
