Gentiana cruciata is a small sized plant with erect stems, large leaves and blue flowers. The flowers have 4 petales and they are trumpet-shaped.

It prefers dry calcareous soil and it can be found in forest edges, grasslands or pastures. It’s tiny and simple yet so so beautiful thanks to its vibrant blue color. Blue might be rare in nature, but no matter where you find this color, it always looks pretty. 🧞♂️
