Tuberaria

Tuberaria is a genus of about 12 species of annual or perennial plants in the rockrose family Cistaceae, native to western and southern Europe. The leaves are in a rosette at the base of the plant, and then in opposite pairs up the stem; they are simple oval, 2 to 5 cm long and 1 to 2 cm broad. The flowers are 2 to 5 cm diameter, with five petals, yellow with a red spot at the base of each petal, the red spot acting as a 'target' for pollinating insects.

Water: Tuberaria flourishes in moderate climates with regular rainfall and is drought-tolerant. Watering should occur weekly, with less needed during natural precipitation. Found predominantly in temperate zones, tuberaria's growth aligns with seasonal rain patterns for optimal health.

Propagation: To propagate tuberaria, sow ripe seeds in well-draining soil under partial sun. Maintain consistent temperatures and monitor moisture without overwatering. Stratify seeds if needed. Follow these steps: collect seeds, stratify, sow, provide stable conditions, keep soil moist, and transplant sturdy seedlings.
