"Cistaceae: A Kaleidoscope of Wildflowers" In this captivating collection, a selection of vibrant wildflowers takes center stage against a pristine white background. Among them, the majestic Thistle (Cirsium) stands tall with its prickly beauty, while the elusive White rock-rose (Helianthemum apenninum) graces us with its rare presence in coastal locations of Devon. Adding to the symphony of colors is the Lisbon false sun-rose or Yellow rock rose (Halimium lasianthum), boasting delicate flowers that radiate warmth and joy. Meanwhile, the Gum rockrose (Cistus ladanifer) enchants us twice over - first in Sierra de Andujar Natural Park in Jaen, Andalusia, Spain and then again in Extremadura. As we venture higher into alpine regions, we encounter the Alpine Rock-rose (Helianthemum alpestre), a resilient beauty thriving amidst challenging conditions. Its cousin, the Thyme-leaved Rock-rose (Helianthemum grandiflorum), captivates with its dainty blooms and serpentine foliage. Not to be outdone by its counterparts, the Common rockrose (Helianthemum nummularia) finds solace at Bishop Middleham quarry in Durham as it flourishes amidst rocky terrain. Nature's intricate dance continues as Narcissus fly (Merodon equestris) male finds nourishment on a Rock rose (Cistus x hybridus) within a garden oasis. The magic extends beyond mere blossoms; dew-kissed spiderwebs glisten alongside Grey-leaved cistus (Cistus albidus) in Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park. Zooming closer still reveals an intimate view of Gum rockrose's exquisite flower petals at Sierra de Andjar Natural Park.
