Ear And Lip Chain Piercing

13 .- Sempervivum in my town



Sempervivum GABALDÓN INTRODUCED INTO SILL (CUENCA, SPAIN)

In the yard of my parents have two species evergreens, but in Castilla-La Mancha are called "Piñuelas"

- archnoideum Sempervivum ssp. tomentosum (the dress of the eastern Pyrenees).

- Another unidentified, perhaps Sempervivum calcareum "? , has a curious see story below.

Here you can see arachnoideum growing on stone walls and in different pots:


In spring

Autumn






Then this other Sempervivum is a mystery. When I was little (years 80), found about 40 or 50 of this Sempervivum rosettes in a small ruins near the forest stand fender located on the highest peak in the Sierra de Solera at 1,110 m. of altitude above sea level, the mountain of Pedriza. " A place where the vegetation is low and there are no trees, ideal for Sempervivum. But what was he doing there? Who put it? I do not know, but I got some roses and planted them in the yard of my father. Over the years grew a lot and give away a lot of common people who in turn raised and donated it to others. Today it grows in several nearby villages. Obviously I found this plant never in the wild, but feral, which does not mean it is a species native to other parts of Spain and someone introduced there deliberately.


interesting thing is when I expose pictures on web sites where these plants scholars write and tell me that is a very curious plant. Some think it is a new species or form of S. cantabricum, others say it is a cultivar calcareum ... is still under discussion, but the fact is that no one has a plant just now. I sent roses to other European countries to see if someone manages to find something. I'm currently waiting for results. Hopefully it will be a discovery, but would be introduced to resolve who and where he got it. It's really strange that in a village of 40 inhabitants lost in a mountain, there is someone who could have found This curious plant elsewhere in Spain and take her there, but that's what should happen, because no other explanation. I'm aware of some plants to send an Italian researcher who studies the DNA of all species of Sempervivum Spain. I leave the photos with this particular form of Sempervivum that still grows in the garden walls of my home in Solera:








The color of the flower completely baffled, because an S. cantabricum white flower is extraordinarily abnormal and yet the bloom of S. calcareum is much like my plant but lacks many features calcareum:

How To Open Smoke Alarm

12 .- My list of Sempervivum

Sempervivum COLLECTION
See PDF Coleccion2007.pdf


My collection is still very young. Most species and varieties are composed of a few rosettes, in some cases only one, so I can not share any, to within at least a year. We must also take into account the possibility of some loss plants, as may occur due to adaptation to climate and latitude conditions.

Therefore I will update the list. The numbers on the left side, are references for registration. 19/10/2007
