Dudleya saxosa is a succulent plant known by the common name Panamint liveforever. This dudleya is native to the rocky slopes of inland and desert mountains in southern California, Arizona, and Baja California. This plant grows a basal clump or rosette of fleshy leaves, which may be flat and blade-shaped to somewhat cylindrical. It bolts one or more erect stems which are usually dull pink to red in color, sometimes with pale green coloration. Atop the stems are compact inflorescences of flowers with bright yellow petals.
