Description:

This beautiful, rare species blooms normally in July. Yesterday we loked for it in mt Hermon, but couldn't see any flowers, only buds. Just as we almost gave up, the first flower was found. Interestingly each plant has flowers with a different dot pattern. The species is perennial and grows in the arid mountains of the Middle East.
