ADROMISCHUS FALLAX Tölken
Section: 3 Brevipedunculati


Adromischus fallax
Adromischus fallax, two clones collected by Dr P. V. Bruyns.

DISTRIBUTION
High mountain sides on shale in the Graaff-Reinet area. Very restricted - I have not yet found this in South Africa, despite trying.

CHARACTERS
Low green rosettes on creeping stems, filling rock cracks.

CULTIVATION
Very easy - will soon fill a pot with stoloniferous shoots.

COMMENTS
Very similar vegetatively to A. humils, but with many trichomes in the paler flowers - light to dark pink.

There is a lovely clone with bright red markings, which was wrongly distributed as A. humils from Sheilams.
