Androsace
« on: May 05, 2011, 02:29:12 PM »
My greatest love among alpines are plants of the Genus Androsace. Let me show you here some plants from my collection. Quite often they are difficult to keep alive, but what I can do - love is love.
The first batch of my pictures from this spring are following:
Androsace akbaitalensis
A. robusta breviscapa
A. rioxana, not the best picture, I am sorry, but new species from Spain
A. zambalensis
A. montana (Douglasia m.]
A. rigida

I am sorry, Jozef, not too much. The plant is the last year and only sedling from seed of which origin I don't know. Winter it survived in my alpine house and it is planted outdoors since the early April. I was told that it is something between A. briganthiaca and halleri.

Zdenek, in my opinion your  A. longifolia is a form of A. mariae.
