Crassulaceae
Crassulaceae, or the "stonecrop family", includes 1,200-1,500 species of shrubs, herbs, subshrubs - and rarely - aquatic or treelike species. All plants are united by the possession of simple, succulent leaves, and CAM photosynthesis.
​While species are located worldwide, they are primarily distributed in the xeric environments of South Africa, and the mountains of Mexico and Asia (1, 2).
