Chaloupkaea pisidica

A rosette succulent named after Pisidia, the ancient region of the western Taurus around Isparta and Burdur in south-western Türkiye. There are no usable wild records or measured climate, so this profile is generalised from the genus and that limestone mountain region. Grow it as a hardy rock plant: full sun, sharp drainage, a dry summer slowdown and a cold winter.
