Title: Help with another Turkish plant please.
Post by: ranunculus on June 12, 2012, 01:34:24 PM

This lovely plant was found growing in cliffs and rocks near the Turkish coast.  Reminded me of a Limonium, until I closed in on the foliage.  Any suggestions please?

Many thanks, Dave ... once you provided the clue it seemed obvious!

I agree with Onosma. Maybe you saw some flowers and when yellow, I would go for Onosma frutescens. This seems to grow on rocks and walls.
