Soldanella alpina L., syn.: Soldanella pyrolaefolia SchottAlpine snowbell, DE: Gewnliches Alpenglckchen, Gewnliche Troddelblume, WettersteinSlo.: alpski zvonekDat.: June 23. 2008Lat.: 46.33091 Long.: 13.44741Code: Bot_276/2008_DSC0392Habitat: alpine grassland, southeast oriented mountain slope just below a ridge, calcareous ground, full sun, exposed to direct rain, average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 1-2 deg C, elevation 1.940 m (6.200 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil.Place: Mt. Kanin (M. Canin) mountain ridge, south of Mt. Velika Baba (Baba grande), 2.137 m (7.009 feet), Slovenia-Italy border, West Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC. Comment: All three members of genus Soldanella growing in Slovenia are in every detail incredible tender plants. All of them are early spring bloomers and grow on wet mountain places short after snow melts. Soldanella alpina is the largest and the most common of all three. To be distinguished from his white blooming brother Soldanella minima is easy based on flower color. The differences to the third one, the rarest - Soldanella pusilla - are more subtle and sometimes the differentiation requires attention. While Soldanella pusilla usually has a single flower on its stalk, Soldanella alpina is supposed to have a few flowers on the flowering stalk (but this doesn't happen always). More open bell shaped, sometimes almost conical flower and deeply cut bell rim (not always) also distinguish it from Soldanella pusilla. It is usually growing in groups of several plants. From where the species name comes is not clear. Some believe that its small round leaves very much resemble small coins ('solde' in Italian).Ref.:(1) D. Aeschimann, K. Lauber, D.M. Moser, J.P.
