Description
(syn. fischeriana)
This is a tiny little species, I cannot stress its diminutive nature enough. Although it makes stems some 15 cm tall, these are slim and slender with tiny leaves – even smaller than the miniature jenisseensis.
The flowers are 5-6 mm across and are pale blue (sometimes almost white). This flowers best in well established, old clumps. I think there are several clones within this stock and hence there is colour variation, but we have not selected them.
Naturally small rhizomes which do well, undisturbed in a leafy, well drained soil, pot or choice garden spot and excellent in the alpine house.
A native of the Southern Altai mountains in central Asia.
