Doesn't belong to thistles (Cirsium), but to the chicory family, where there are; salsify, goat's beard, viper's grass, oyster plant, chicory...(milk sap is characteristic for them).
Zvonček, sure you can call it Spanish golden thistle if you likenasmeh

Apolonija, thanks, you're a real treasure. I know the listed chicoriesnasmeh, I'll look for some more. On thistle I thought because in English thistle and in German distel means thistle.
Anyway I'll always call it Spanish golden thistle myselfnasmehnasmeh Regards

And Darinka, they really are wonderful.

I know how you thought of it. Yes, if you look at the spines, you think right away of thistle. But if you look at the flower head, it's nothing like thistles nasmeh

Well behind me is August and half September, when I wandered western Balkans-Hungary -drove through when going to Romania, Romania, Serbia with Vojvodina, Croatia. On way to Albania through half Italy, cuz we went to Albania to Durrës from Bari. Then hiked in Albania. Going home through Montenegro, through part of Bosnia and then along Croatian coast home. Flowers of Romania I already showed. For Albania it was a bit late for flowers. By coast I found this though.
On the shore of the Ionian Sea near Saranda I found steppe lily.1
I have never seen it in the wild - I grow it at home.2
And more of these flowers of very dry banks.3

Brane, hello.

Years ago I was in Albania and admired this mighty plant with large bulbs in the ground myself, which you call steppe lily, but it's not really. Back then I looked into it more. I found out it belongs to the Asparagaceae family (asparagus family), subfamily Scilloideae and genus Drimia, while steppe lily (Eremurus) belongs to the Asphodelaceae family. The plant is called (has several synonyms) Drimia maritima, often called Scilla maritima. Anyway, Brane, have you ever seen steppe lilies blooming so late???

19 is tree aeonium (Aeonium arboreum var. atropurpureum). If I have time, I'll check the other plants more closely.

This year you've really walked and traveled a lot, and we couch potatoes benefit from it too, thanks.nasmeh

Rare flowers from Raduha on Saturday, alpine thistle and stemless kompava are from Olševa on Sunday.
Silky alpine bartsia of course is not from the top of Raduha like the first three flowers, but from its foothills at Grohat pasture. Lp

Zvonček, among all the little flowers my eye stopped on Braun's hawkweed in picture 1. I wondered if it is or not. Quite surprising that you thought of it exactly, since these yellow hawkweeds are sometimes very hard to distinguish from each other. And this Braun's one is rarely mentioned, let alone anyone posting its photo. You might be right, as quite a few details match. First, this location is listed in the Atlas of Slovenian Flora as one where it can be found. Second, the petals are mostly longer than the sepals, which is visible here. But I can't see the hairiness from the picture, which should be visible on leaves only at the bottom and at the edges and sparsely hairy. And at least the basal leaves should be pinnate, which matches the picture. And also: the stem is in most cases one-flowered. Did you perhaps look at it more closely live or how did you come to this determination? Do you have any more detailed photos? I'm very interested, because I'm leaning towards you being right, but I'd like to know your key for identification. Flowering time should be July-August, meaning it might still appear somewhere now. Best regards mežikanje

Zlatica, Zvonček, my opinion too. Hawkweeds have leaves divided into leaflets, the name hints at 5 leaflets, although some have more (7), others only 3, like this Braun's one we're talking about.
If I focus only on hawkweeds with three leaflets, I see that some bloom in spring, some are white, so for these months only Braun's remains, even if no hairs are visible.
Correct me, please.smile

Nothing to it, Apolonija, nice that you think the same, that it's Braun's hawkweed.
Zvonček, congrats to you for the find and this rare post. Lp

Zlatica, unfortunately I only have this photo of Braun's hawkweed. I identified it based on the ternate leaves, location (high mountain belt) and flowering time of this yellow hawkweed. Braun's blooms from July to August, some specimens even later. LP

One autumn blue-violet garland flower. Probably among the last this year. I immortalized them on the way, Podvežak-Deska-Vodotočnik-Lučki dedec-Korošica. Best regards.

Deniss, now flower photos have become very rare, so your wreath is all the more welcome. And as I see, some Wulfen's gentians have bloomed again, as if wanting to catch the last warm sun.
Darinka, your "ivanjščica" is pure sunshine! You named it nicely velik nasmehnasmeh
