About

Gagea minima, known as the least gagea, is a Eurasian species of plants in the lily family.

Its native range is quite large, as it is found in much of south-central, southeastern, central and northern Europe (Italy, Germany, Scandinavia, and from there eastwards into European Russia), with additional populations in the Caucasus region.
