Gentiana clusii, commonly known as flower of the sweet-lady or Clusius' gentian, is a large-flowered, short-stemmed gentian, native to Europe. It is named after Carolus Clusius, one of the earliest botanists to study alpine flora.
This species is very similar to Gentiana acaulis , but Gentiana clusii differs in the absence of green stripes inside the corolla, by a more pointed shape of the corners between the petals, and preferring areas underlaid by limestone.
In common with G. acaulis, Gentiana clusii is found in the Pyrenees, Alps, [1] Apennines, Jura, Black Forest and the Carpathians. Seeds are available from commercial suppliers.
