• Alyssum — A genus of small annual or perennial herbaceous plants in the family Brassicaceae, native to Mediterranean and temperate regions of Europe and Asia, comprising low-growing species with simple leaves and small flowers grouped in dense yellow or white inflorescences. Commonly known in gardens as alyssum or madwort, these plants are widely used in horticulture for rock gardens and floral borders due to their high drought tolerance and long blooming period.
• Mountain alyssum — A perennial herbaceous plant species within the genus Alyssum, family Brassicaceae, distributed across the mountainous and hilly areas of Europe; commonly known as mountain alyssum or mountain madwort. The plant features prostrate stems at the base, grayish leaves covered with stellate hairs, and fragrant yellow flowers grouped in dense racemes, making it ideal for rock gardens due to its high drought resistance.
