Helianthemum almeriense
Helianthemum almeriense, also known as jarilla, mata turmera or tormera in Spanish, is a very branched woody plant of the Cistaceae family, with showy white flowers, which blooms in winter and spring.
In thyme fields and cleared places, in dry, stony, limestone, micaceous, loamy soils or in gypsum wastelands, sometimes also in volcanic soils and even in sandy soils (beaches); from sea level up to 1200 m altitude. Arid southeast of the Iberian Peninsula; it has also been cited from Morocco, where its presence would need to be confirmed.
