Teucrium montanum, the mountain germander, is a germander native to southern Europe, from Spain eastward to Turkey.
[1][2] It forms shrubs about a foot high, with small leaves no more than an inch across, and petals blooming yellowish white.
On south-facing mountain slopes, it can be found as far up as 2400 meters in the Alps.
[3][not specific enough to verify] The plant was known to the ancient Greeks, one of several plants named χαμαίπιτυς, as mentioned by Pliny the Elder in his Latin work Historia Naturalis.
[4] Two subspecies are recognized: the nominate subspecies T. m. montanum, and T. m. helianthemoides (Adamovic) Baden.
