Eversmannia

Eversmannia is a monotypic genus of flowering plants in the family Apiaceae. The sole species in this genus is Eversmannia eximia. This plant is native to the Caucasus region, specifically found in mountainous areas of Georgia and Russia. Eversmannia eximia is a perennial herb that typically grows in rocky crevices and alpine meadows. Its appearance is characterized by finely divided, feathery leaves and delicate white or pale pink flowers borne in compound umbels, typical of the Apiaceae family. The genus was named in honor of Alexander von Eversmann, a Russian naturalist and physician who extensively explored the flora of Russia and Central Asia. Eversmannia eximia is not widely cultivated and is primarily of interest to botanists and those studying the flora of the Caucasus. Its ecological role involves contributing to the biodiversity of its native alpine habitats. Further research into its specific ecological interactions and potential uses remains limited.
