Kabuccinella ta' Malta
Din il-paġna għadha mhix tradotta għall-Malti.
A plant of low garigue and dry, exposed rocky ground, with inconspicuous flowers in April and May. It is found in Malta and nearby islands and is strictly protected by law.
Maltese cudweed grows on low garigue, steppe and exposed, arid rocky ground, and on footpaths. Its flowers are inconspicuous and open in April and May.
The Online Flora of the Maltese Islands describes it as subendemic: it grows in Malta and in neighbouring places such as Sicily, Lampedusa and Pantelleria. Under Maltese law it is strictly protected (Regulation 26 of S.L. 549.44), so please do not pick or disturb it.
The reference site's botanical description is still to be added.
Kif tista' tgħin
Keep to the paths in garigue and do not pick or dig up the plant. If you see damage to protected plants, report it (see Report).
