Biarum auraniticum

A little-known Biarum recorded only from Syria. Its name points to the Hauran, the volcanic basalt plateau of southern Syria. Grow it as a summer-dormant Mediterranean steppe corm: water in autumn, keep it cool and bright in winter, and dry in summer.

Where it grows wild

No habitat account was found. The epithet suggests the Hauran basalt plateau. The genus usually grows in stony ground, in rock crevices and gravelly soils, in open steppe.

No records carry an elevation. The Hauran lies at roughly 700-1,800 m, but the only climate site is a centroid at 567 m.
