This image showcases the Sea Holly (Eryngium), a unique coastal plant known for its spiky, blue-green foliage and thistle-like flowers. The plant's distinct metallic hue and architectural form make it a standout feature in sandy and rocky shorelines. Sea Holly thrives in harsh coastal conditions, tolerating salt spray, sandy soils, and strong winds. Its deep root system helps stabilize sandy areas, playing a crucial role in preventing soil erosion. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, Sea Holly contributes to the local ecosystem by providing nectar for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, supporting biodiversity in coastal regions. The plant's resilience and ability to flourish in challenging environments make it an important species for habitat restoration and coastal conservation efforts. Sea Holly is not only a symbol of the rugged beauty of coastal landscapes but also a vital component of the natural ecosystem, helping to protect and preserve these fragile areas.

Thyme, scientifically known as Thymus vulgaris, is an aromatic plant highly appreciated both in cooking and in natural medicine. Its small flowers, which are usually white to pink and sometimes lilac, appear grouped in bouquets during spring and early summer. These flowers not only beautify the plant, but are also infused with the same beneficial properties of thyme, including its antiseptic, stimulating and balsamic effects. Additionally, thyme care is easy, making it a great option for those who want to enjoy its benefits without spending too much time in the garden.
