Astraea

Astraea typically thrives in rocky, alpine environments, adapting remarkably well to harsh conditions. It displays a compact growth habit, featuring rosettes of fleshy leaves that often bear a silvery or bluish tint, aiding in water retention. The blooms emerge as star-shaped, vibrant flowers, which contrast strikingly against the tough, stony landscapes it inhabits.
