Centaurothamnus maximus

This botanical gem is a rare shrub in the daisy family, found only in two localities in Saudi Arabia and in a few high altitude cliffs of Yemen. It is definitely beautiful, because it bears large, pink-blue, centaurea-like inflorescences. It has silvery, velvety leaves and a nice erect and compact growth habit.
