A. azurea Miller, Gard. Dict. ed. 8: no. 9 (1768).
Coarsely hispid to strigose perennial; stems erect, 20-150 cm. Leaves linear-elliptic to lanceolate or oblanceolate, 50-200 x 6-40 mm, ± entire to faintly undulate-crenate; indumentum dense, of soft or stiff setae. Inflorescence elongating considerably in fruit, bracts minute, linear-lanceolate. Calyx c. 8 mm in flower, 12-15 mm in fruit, divided almost to base into linear, acute lobes. Corolla violet or deep blue, occasionally paler or even white, tube 6-10 mm; lobes 5-8 mm. Stamens inserted at top of tube and overlapping the scales. Nutlets 6-10 x 2-3 mm, oblong, erect. Fl. 4-7. Fields, dry steppe, etc., s.1.-2500 m.

Cyprus, Lebanon, Palestine, Arabia, Syrian Desert, Iran. A widespread and variable species. Var. kurdica is intermediate (and probably a hybrid) between var. azurea and A. strigosa, having the leaf texture of the former but the calyxlobes of the latter. Specimens from C8 Siirt (13 km from Siirt to.Kurtalan, 850 m, D. 43130!) and C9 Mardin (S. foot of Cudi Da., 500-700 m, D. 42756!) with the calyx of A. strigosa but otherwise with the characteristics of A. azurea S.I., may also have a hybrid origin.
