Gongarillo purpurario (Aichryson tortuosum)

Small shrublet (to 10-15 cm), woody base, often cushion-shaped, with numerous stems. Leaves are clustered towards the tips of the stems and are more or less spathulate or obovate, fleshy and reddish-green, often in tight groups. Flowers are terminal and yellow with 7-8 petals. Endemic to the two easternmost Canary Islands (Lanzarote and Fuerteventura), where two varieties are found: A. tortuosum and A. bethencourtianum, exclusive to Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, respectively. They grow in a rocky habitat, on north-facing outcrops in damp areas, up to 800 m, and are found in the massifs of Famara (Lanzarote) and Jandía (Fuerteventura).
