This member of the
Lennoaceae* family
was given this name by George A. Yatskievych in 1982. It is found in northern
Mexico, growing on the roots of Euphoriaceaes in grit with no water and
lots of sun - although I doubt it care. The caudex can grow to five centimetres in diameter, the entire plant
from five to fifteen centimetres in height. The flowers are white with
pink shading.
The genera name from Latin
pholis; 'scale'. The species name from the Mexican city;
Culiacán Rosales.
')Accordantly to the latest taxonomic system; APG IV 2016, Lennoaceae
is
now part of
the Boraginaceae. |
