Clinopodium troodi
About
Clinopodium troodi, the Troödos rock thyme, is a perennial sprawling herb with a woody rootstock and reddish-green 5–20 cm long hairy shoots. This aromatic member of the mint family is prized for its violet-blue flowers that bloom amid the rugged mountain landscape. Found exclusively in the highest elevations of the Troodos Mountains of Cyprus, this plant has evolved to grow in harsh rocky environments where few other plants can survive.
