Biarum ditschianum

A rare Biarum from the coast of south-west Türkiye near Kaş and the nearby Greek island of Kastellorizo. It grows in limestone rock and stony ground close to the sea, is summer-dormant like its relatives, and flowers in autumn. It needs a frost-free, bright winter and a hot, dry summer rest.
