Androsace Cylindrica
''Androsace'', commonly known as rock jasmine, is a genus of flowering plants in the family Primulaceae, second only to ''Primula'' in the number of species. It is predominantly Arctic–alpine, with many species in the Himalayas (where the genus originated), the mountains of central Asia, the Caucasus, and the southern and central European mountain systems, particularly the Alps and the Pyrenees. Plants of this genus are sometimes known as rock jasmines or fairy candelabras, and are widely cultivated for their dense cushions covered in white or pink flowers. There are roughly 110 species. These plants have small entire or toothed leaves which form a basal rosette. Taxonomy Recent molecular studies show that the genera ''Douglasia'' (found in north-western North America and easternmost Siberia), '' Pomatosace'' (an Himalayan endemic) and ''Vitaliana'' (a European endemic) are nested within ''Androsace''. Phylogenetic studies have also demonstrated that the ancestor of ''Androsa ...

Androsace Laevigata
''Androsace laevigata'', synonym ''Douglasia laevigata'', known as the cliff dwarf primrose, is a species of flowering plant in the primrose family, Primulaceae. It is native to the central Pacific coastal mountains of North America (west of the crest of the Cascade Range of British Columbia, Oregon and Washington) below elevation. Its habitat includes cliffs, rocks, and alpine. Description ''Androsace laevigata'' is a small mat-forming herbaceous perennial plant about high. The five-lobed flowers are deep pink to rose. Each lobe is mm long. Taxonomy ''Androsace laevigata'' was first described by Asa Gray in 1880 as ''Douglasia laevigata''. Molecular phylogenetic studies showed that the genus ''Douglasia'' is nested within ''Androsace ''Androsace'', commonly known as rock jasmine, is a genus of flowering plants in the family Primulaceae, second only to ''Primula'' in the number of species.

Asia
Asia (, ) is one of the world's most notable geographical regions, which is either considered a continent in its own right or a subcontinent of Eurasia, which shares the continental landmass of Afro-Eurasia with Africa. Asia covers an area of , about 30% of Earth's total land area and 8.7% of Earth's total surface area. The continent, which has long been home to the majority of the human population, was the site of many of the first civilizations. Its 4.7 billion people constitute roughly 60% of the world's population. In general terms, Asia is bounded on the east by the Pacific Ocean, on the south by the Indian Ocean, and on the north by the Arctic Ocean. The border of Asia with Europe is a historical and cultural construct, as there is no clear physical and geographical separation between them. It is somewhat arbitrary and has moved since its first conception in classical antiquity. The division of Eurasia into two continents reflects East–West cultural, linguistic, ...

Androsace Americana
''Androsace americana'', synonym ''Douglasia arctica'', known as the Mackenzie River dwarf primrose, is a species of flowering plant in the primrose family, Primulaceae. It is native to subarctic North America (Alaska, the Northwest Territories and Yukon). Taxonomy The species was first described by William Jackson Hooker in 1838 as ''Douglasia arctica''. Molecular phylogenetic studies showed that the genus ''Douglasia'' is nested within ''Androsace''. The name "''Androsace artica''" was published in 1826 for a different species (now regarded as a synonym of ''Androsace ochotensis''), so the replacement name ''Androsace americana'', published by Per Wendelbo in 1961, is used instead. Description ''Androsace americana'' are relatively small, usually found as mats growing up to about 2 inches tall. They have a single, short stem that protrude from each rosette of leaves. Leaves are smooth and closely packed, forming rosettes of leaves that reach an average of 3/8 inches long. ' ...

Androsace Alpina
''Androsace alpina'', or Alpine rock-jasmine, is an alpine plant, endemic to the Alps. Distribution In the wild, ''Androsace alpina'' grows on silicaceous substrates, particularly granite, and is one of the few plants in the Alps to grow above 4000 metres, including near the summit of the Matterhorn (only '' Ranunculus glacialis'' and perhaps '' Saxifraga biflora'' grow higher). The plant feeds of the substance that grows under the rocks that the Androsace Alpina is on. Description The flowers of ''A. alpina'' are white or pink (often both on the same plant), and in the short flowering season can be so densely packed that they completely shade the foliage. It is largely for this reason that ''A. alpina'' has become popular among horticulturists. Cultivation ''Androsace alpina'' is cultivated as an ornamental plant, widely grown in rock gardens.
