Pollens of 20 species of Sedum were investigated with a scanning electron microscope. The pollen morphology of Sedum was rather variable, within particular species or even within a single inflorescence. Differences occurred in the number and shape of apertures and surface sculpture. Besides 3-colporate, various aperture types including 2-syncolporate, 3-syncolporate, 40stephanocolporate, 5-stephanocolporate, zonate, and irregular types were found in a single specimen. Also, striate-rugulose and psilate sculpture were found in S. viviparum. No correlation was found between the pollen morphology and the floral formula. Pollen characters appeared to be not useful for infrageneric classification of Korean Sedum.
