Location depends on type and variety
Adipose hens come from different climates, with most species being at home in the temperate zones of the northern hemisphere. However, some sedumbers can also be found in the subtropical and tropical regions of Africa, Asia or South America. Depending on their origin, certain species prefer moist or dry soils, although they all have a common preference for sunny locations. However, there are also sedum species that also feel comfortable in partially shaded locations.
