johnsonii

Johnsonii is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, commonly known as the daisy family. The genus is named after the botanist Samuel Johnson, who was a contemporary of Carl Linnaeus, the father of modern taxonomy. Johnsonii is native to the Mediterranean region, with species found in countries such as Spain, Italy, and Greece. The plants in this genus are herbaceous perennials, typically growing to a height of 10-30 centimeters. They have small, daisy-like flowers that are usually yellow or white, and are arranged in clusters at the top of the plant. The leaves are often narrow and linear, and are arranged in a basal rosette. Johnsonii plants are often used in rock gardens and other dry, sunny locations, as they are well-adapted to these conditions. The genus includes around 15 species, with the most well-known being Johnsonii acaulis, which is often cultivated as an ornamental plant.
