Hieracium phaeocomoides is a rare and striking species of hawkweed native to the mountainous regions of Europe. This plant is known for its distinctive yellow flowers and dark green leaves that stand out against the alpine landscape. It thrives in rocky and gravelly soils, often found in high-altitude meadows and open slopes. Due to its limited distribution and habitat specificity, it is considered a vulnerable species. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect this unique botanical gem from environmental threats.
