Describe the plant here... {{Inc| Altamiranoa (named for Dr. F. Altamirano, late Director of the Instituto Medico Nacional, of the City of Mexico). Crassulàceae. Low, much-branched perennials with the habit and foliage of Sedum, but with the petals united into a distinct tube. On account of the tubular fls., some of the species were first described as Cotyledon, with which they have little else in common. None of the species is especially attractive, but all of them develop at the base or on the branches curious rosettes of Lvs. Twelve specimens are known, of which 5 have been grown in Washington greenhouses and the New York Botanical Garden. A. elongata, Rose, has puberulent sts. and Lvs. and white fls.; A. calcicola, Rose, is more or less glaucous, with turgid Lvs. and greenish-yellow fls.; A. Goldmanii, Rose, is glabrous, with linear Lvs. and pale yellow fls.; A. Batesii, Rose, is glabrous, with linear Lvs. and fls. purplish or becoming so; A. scopulina, Rose, is glabrous, with linear Lvs. and pure white fls. }} ==Cultivation== ===Propagation=== ===Pests and diseases=== ==Varieties== ==Gallery== <gallery perrow=5> Image:Upload.png| photo 1 Image:Upload.png| photo 2 Image:Upload.png| photo 3 </gallery> ==References== <references/> *[[Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture]], by L.
