Sinningia leucotricha (Rechsteineria leucotricha). In 1956 it was described by the Brazilian botanist Frederico Carlos Hoehne as Rechsteineria leucotricha, and in 1973, after the merger of the two genera, renamed Sinningia leucotricha. The flowers are simple, tubular, narrow, elongated, pubescent, axillary, with salmon-red or orange in color. The leaves are medium-sized, silvery-green, covered with dense white-tomentose pubescence, dense, oval, pointed, oppositely arranged. Shoots erect, 20-30 cm tall, light silvery-green color, thick, succulent, pubescent. Tuber light brown, spherical, with hills, with a diameter of 6-10 cm and more, with an indentation in the middle of a growth point. With the arrival of spring and the beginning of the growing season from the point of growth on the tuber there is a lot of short shoots, which later remains not more than 4, producing leaves and bloom in 4-6 weeks after the start of the growing season. With the onset of autumn the leaves turn yellow and the aerial part is gradually dying away, comes a period of rest and tuber harvested in a cool dark place until spring. Homeland - South Brazil, the province of Parana, where the plant grows on rocky slopes or in crevices, often near waterfalls. In Brazil, this species is called 'Rainha do Abismo', as this would indicate growing conditions in hard to reach areas on the steep slopes of cliffs and canyons. In other countries for unique appearance and the thick white fluff plant became affectionately call "Brazilian Edelweiss".
