Where was this made?:

This plant is easily spotted not only for its beauty and striking yellow color,
but also for its height (the plant grows up to 80 cm!). It enables anyone and everyone to see it and thus, to contemplate it. This plant also seems to enjoy this attention, letting people use its petals and leaves in salads or as an aromatic seasoning for olive oils. It is one of the most important plants of the Mediterranean region. It cannot stop to be observed, loved and used by humans.
