About

Phlomis bourgaei, the puckered gray-green Turkish phlomis, is a species of flowering plant in the family Lamiaceae, native to East Aegean Islands to South West Turkey.

The specific epithet bourgaei is a taxonomic patronym honouring the French botanical traveller Eugène Bourgeau (1813–1877), who collected in Anatolia, North Africa, and North America.
