SettingGreeceField focusAnchusa, Aristolochia and Acantholimon

Acantholimon

Spiny cushions on open rock

Acantholimon records should show cushion shape, leaf points and flower clusters, with substrate and exposure clearly noted.

Anchusa

For small Anchusa plants, photograph hairiness, leaf shape, growth form and flower detail, and check current spelling when cataloguing.

Aristolochia

Aristolochia flowers are memorable, but leaves, stem and habitat remain necessary for a useful identification record.
