Porophyllum Coloratum Var. Obtusifolium

Porophyllum coloratum var. obtusifolium is a unique and lesser-known variant of the Porophyllum genus, native to specific regions of Mexico. This plant is characterized by its broad, rounded leaves and vibrant yellow flowers that bloom in the summer months. It thrives in well-drained soils and full sun, making it a suitable candidate for rock gardens or xeriscaping. Despite its ornamental value, it remains relatively obscure in horticultural circles. Its cultivation offers both aesthetic pleasure and a chance to support local biodiversity.
