Notes:
References to this taxon growing in Butte County in Zika et al. 2018 are an error. Reports of this species growing near 900 m in elevation may be based on a label error for Ahart s.n. (CAS:BOT:932358) which is from La Porte with a stated elevation of 914 m; La Porte is at 1525 m, not 914. This error is likely responsible for the low elevation of 900 m given in the Jepson eFlora.
Threats:
Threatened by fire, fire suppression activities, road maintenance, vehicles, and horticultural collecting.
Taxonomy:
Resembles Sedum obtusatum from which it differs by having petals that are white fading to pink (versus pale to deep yellow). Plants previously referred to S. obtusatum ssp. boreale in Plumas and Sierra counties now determined to be S. paradisum ssp. subroseum. Sedum paradisum ssp. subroseum is geographically separated from S. obtusatum by the Middle Fork of the Yuba River in Sierra County.
