Yellow "rue" in Northern Greece IDd by Oron as Ruta patavina
« on: June 24, 2012, 10:08:52 AM »
Pat's lovely photos of orchids in Zagoria reminded me that I've never succeeded in finding the name of this plant which we saw there in late spring. I thought it might be a Haplophyllum, perhaps Haplophyllum balcanicum. Any ideas? Jorun was there at the same time, and may have a better picture.

Looks like Ruta patavina syn Haplophyllum patavinum

Thanks, Oron; you're obviously right, now I compare it with pictures of the plant.

Sorry, Alisdair, but I did not see this one when we were in Zagoria, so no photos either, but yours are very nice.
