Dudleya verityi, also known as Verity's liveforever, is a rare succulent plant endemic to Ventura County, California. It is only found in three locations near Conejo Mountain and may also occur in nearby areas that have not been officially documented. The plant has a fleshy perennial growth habit and produces yellow flowers in the spring. It has a unique vegetative morphology, with a branching caudex and waxy, grayish-green leaves. This species was first collected in 1944 and has been classified as a population of Dudleya caespitosa and Dudleya farinosa, but it has distinct characteristics that set it apart from these species. It is named after horticulturist and entomologist David S. Verity, who worked on Dudleya hybrids. This plant is found in coastal sage scrub habitat and is often associated with mosses and lichens. It is a federally listed threatened species due to habitat destruction and poaching. The 2013 Springs Fire and subsequent drought have greatly impacted its population.
