ANDREANUM (Wale)

Collected in 1935 by Mrs. Andrea Giuseppi in the Sierra Cani, north Spain and described in the Quart. Bull. Alp. Gard. Soc. Vol. 9 page 116 (1941). A distinct species with rosettes 1,5 to 4 cm in diameter, the outer leaves forming a tight, conical bud similar to that of S. wulfenii (Hoppe). The stolons carrying the new rosettes are short and consequently tend to form close clumps of rosettes. The flowers have pale pink petals deepening to a light red at the base; yellow anthers. Easy under cultivation and increases quickly.
