Pericallis Steetzii

pericallis steetzii

Pericallis Steetzii is a captivating shrubby perennial endemic to the moist, misty laurel forests of La Gomera in the Canary Islands. Belonging to the aster family, this plant plays a crucial role in the local ecosystem by providing abundant nectar for endemic pollinators. Its lush green foliage and vibrant daisy-like flowers make it a true botanical treasure of the Macaronesian region. Adapted to thrive in high humidity and volcanic soils, this resilient plant showcases the incredible evolutionary isolation of the Canary Islands flora. It often lines the damp, shaded trails of the Garajonay National Park, greeting hikers with its soft leaves and striking colorful blooms.

生息地: Found in humid laurel forests (laurisilva), damp ravines, and shaded rocky cliffs of La Gomera.

外見

This perennial shrub typically grows between 50 and 150 centimeters tall, featuring large, heart-shaped to rounded green leaves that are noticeably pale and woolly underneath. Its eye-catching flower heads are grouped in dense clusters, displaying purplish-pink or lilac ray florets surrounding a central disc that ranges from deep purple to bright yellow, providing a vivid contrast against the dark forest understory.

おもしろい事実

Its genus, Pericallis, is the evolutionary origin of the popular cultivated garden cineraria.

Pericallis steetzii is a paleo-endemic relic of the ancient forests that once covered the Mediterranean basin before the last ice age.

The leaves have a distinctively soft, velvet-like texture due to the fine silver-white hairs on their undersides.
