Tuberaria guttata is an annual plant native to select coastal regions, characterized by leafy stems that can reach lengths of 30 cm. These stems may grow upright or spread out, originating from a rosette at the base. In late spring and early summer, the plant produces bowl-shaped yellow flowers, each featuring a distinctive red-brown blotch at the base of the petals.

Tuberaria guttata

Tuberaria lignosa is a perennial plant characterized by its woody base and rosettes of elliptical, hairy leaves that are dark green on the upper side and lighter beneath, featuring pronounced veins. In early to mid-summer, this species produces lemon yellow flowers adorned with golden yellow centers.
