👉 Amethysa is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, native to the Mediterranean region and found throughout Europe, Asia, and North Africa. They are known for their large, colorful flowers that range from small to medium-sized, with bright colors such as red, pink, white, and yellow. Amethysa are dioecious, meaning they have two reproductive structures in the same plant, where one part of each flower produces pollen while the other part does not.
