Sonnenreych
Sonnenreych documents a private botanical collection in Germany.
I am Edwin Großmann, and I cultivate botanical species mainly from southern and eastern Africa, the Horn of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, including Socotra. The collection focuses on Sansevieria, Pelargonium, Coleus, Asphodelaceae and Dorstenia.
Sonnenreych presents a selection from my collection. Species profiles bring botanical literature together with personal cultivation observations. Localities and collection numbers are included where documented; uncertain identifications are clearly marked.
The collection is grown in the northern Harz foreland in Germany, partly under glass and outdoors in summer. Light, watering and winter rest are guided by each species’ habitat and growth cycle.
