Types of Hyoseris

Perennial hyoseris

Perennial hyoseris (Hyoseris radiata) is a member of the dandelion family with an attractive yellow flower that can be seen flowering in late spring across the Mediterranean habitat. But, despite its attractive flower, this plant isn't grown ornamentally, nor is it an invasive species.

Annual hyoseris

Annual hyoseris is a resilient herbaceous plant, easily recognizable by its rosette of rough, hairy leaves and solitary yellow flower heads. Flourishing in open, arid terrains, its deep taproot allows it to access water in challenging conditions. The bristly texture defends against herbivores, while its blooms attract a variety of pollinators.
