Limonium sinuatum

Limonium sinuatum is a perennial herbaceous plant native to the Mediterranean region, belonging to the Plumbaginaceae family. It forms a basal rosette of wavy-edged, lance-shaped leaves with distinctive lobed margins, and produces erect, branched stems (30–70 cm tall) topped by clusters of small, funnel-shaped flowers. The flowers are notable for their vibrant colors (purple, pink, yellow, or white) and papery calyces make them common in flower arrangements. Thriving in well-drained, sandy, or saline soils, it is often found in coastal habitats, grasslands, and disturbed sites, where it tolerates full sun and drought. While primarily cultivated as an ornamental or cut flower, it has naturalized in several coastal locations in California, often growing with other non-native Limonium species.
