Linum tenuifolium, the narrow-leaved flax, is a species of flowering plant in the family Linaceae. It is native to central and southern Europe, the Black Sea and Caucasus area, and the northern Middle East as far as northwestern Iran. A perennial, it is generally found in rocky, alkaline, dry situations, and is thought to have spread out from relict European rocky steppes.
