ADROMISCHUS SUBVIRIDIS Tölken
Section: 5 Longipedunculati




DISTRIBUTION
Bokkeveldberge, usually at high altitude on shales and mudstones.

CHARACTERS
Another beautiful, but larger species with white farinose leaves, always with red spots.

CULTIVATION
Hungry plants! Leaves dry up excessively if not given year-round watering.

COMMENTS
Flowers are very similar to A. marianiae - it is probably a south-easterly relative. A nice narrow leafed form has been collected from the eastern Knersvlakte.

For two more habitat photos of A. subviridis, see "White Adromischus" by Bryan Makin.
