I would like to revive this topic in attempts to i.d. these pretty little
specimens now in full bloom. The surprise snowfall we had here new year's
week may have given them an extra boost, because they seem more healthy and
plentiful than last year.
Description: height, about 10 cm tall, pale yellow, bearded, with
bronze-purplish markings on outer petals. Foliage evergreen, bluish. A
delicate perfume. Clusters are nestled among rocks in an area treed with
halepensis pines, wild olives and scrub oaks.
