Discussion

Sedum villosum, a calcifuge, is native in western, central, and northern Europe (Iceland to Lithuania and Poland) and is disjunct in eastern Canada (islands of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence) and Greenland. R. T. Clausen (1975) suggested that it might have arrived in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence as seeds in floating pieces of ice from the shores of Greenland or Iceland.
