Again, this is not Sedum oreades.  It is a Rhodiola which I shall try to name in due course.

In that case it may be Rhodiola wallichiana as per images herein and as per images from Valley of Flowers in FOI at Wallich's Rhodiola

I repeat that Rhodiola is an extremely difficult genus.  I shall look into the genus in the Himalaya further
in due course but at this point cannot meaningfully comment further.  Much easier to say what a specimen
is not, rather than what definitely is.  Will not help the situation of frequent misidentifications by prematurely
confirming an identification.   At present I am not certain how to distinguish Rhodiola wallichiana.

In some cases the characteristics visible in some photos are insufficient to be sure. 

 


Best Wishes,
