Centaurea athoa 

Low growing species with a rosette of feathery leaves with grey undersides. The small yellow flowers are held on recumbent stems. 

Needs good drainage and full sun, and may require protection from winter wet. Survived the cold winter of 2010-11 in our garden.

Common name Athos Knapweed.

Also called C. parolinii and C. trojana
