Hieracium Densiflorum Subsp. Sabinifolium

Hieracium densiflorum subsp. sabinifolium is a lesser-known member of the dandelion family known for its unique appearance and ecological significance. This plant thrives in moist, shaded environments and is often found in woodland areas across northern Europe and parts of Asia. Its leaves are narrow and slightly hairy, while its flowers form dense clusters of yellow petals that bloom in early summer. Despite its modest size, it plays an important role in supporting local insect populations and soil health. Due to habitat loss, this species is becoming increasingly rare and warrants conservation attention.
