GIUSEPPII
Described in the Quart. Bull. Alp. Gard. Soc. Vol. 9 page 115 (1941). Collected in 1935 by Dr. P.L. Giuseppi from the Pena Espiguete, North-West Spain, growing on limestone rock. Recent finds have been made by Dr. M.C. Smith of the Botany Dept., Bristol University, these conclude not only collections from Pena Espiguete, but also Picos de Europa, at Ijan and Pena Prieta; localities in N.W. Spain. It is a good species having rosettes 2,5 to 3,5 cm in diameter with rosette leaves ovate, mucronate, pale green with a small brown patch at the apex and densely pubescent with long stiff marginal ciliation. Offsets are numerous, given on short stolons. Flowers are rose-red. An extremely easy species to grow and soon forms a dense clump.
