Anthyllis Dillenii Subsp. Hispida

Hairy anthyllis, scientifically known as Anthyllis dillenii subsp. hispida, is a striking member of the legume family native to the mountainous regions of southern Europe. This plant is characterized by its dense, hairy foliage and clusters of small, yellow flowers that bloom in late spring. It thrives in rocky and arid environments, often found in alpine and subalpine habitats. Due to its unique appearance and ecological importance, it is both a subject of botanical interest and a symbol of mountainous biodiversity. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect this rare and delicate species from habitat loss and climate change.
