Conophytum jarmilae

A tiny, winter-growing Conophytum from the arid Cape Provinces of South Africa, known from a single georeferenced record at about 1000 m. Like most Conophytums it grows from autumn to spring and must be kept dry and dormant through the hot summer.

Where it grows wild

Conophytums grow in rock crevices and on quartz or gravel patches in very arid winter-rainfall country, often partly shaded by rock. The single record is at about 1000 m in the Namaqualand–Bushmanland region.

The one measured site is at about 1000 m.
