Sempervivum caucasicum

Sempervivum caucasicum belongs to the genus Sempervivum, a group of succulent plants commonly known as houseleeks. This species is part of the Crassulaceae family, which includes many drought-tolerant and rock-dwelling plants. It is distributed across the North Caucasus and Transcaucasus, regions known for their diverse alpine and subalpine flora. The species was formally published in 1872 by the botanist Rupr. ex Boiss., contributing to the taxonomic understanding of the Sempervivum genus in the Caucasus region.
