Hellenia

Hellenia, scientifically known as Hellenia, is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Apiaceae, commonly known as the carrot or parsley family. These plants are native to various regions across Europe and parts of Asia, where they thrive in temperate climates. Hellenia species are characterized by their aromatic foliage and small, clustered flowers that often display a range of colors from white to purple. Due to their medicinal properties and ornamental value, Hellenia has been historically used in traditional herbal remedies. Despite their beauty and utility, Hellenia remains relatively underappreciated in modern horticulture.
