distribution_en:
description_en: Genus of about 7 species of small, some-times cushion-forming, often woody-based perennials, usually found in calcareous soils in the Mediterranean region. The tiny, narrowly lance-shaped to oblong or almost rounded leaves are alternate and simple. Tubular flowers, each with 5 spreading petal lobes, are solitary or, more usually, produced in corymbs. Grow T. caeruleum and other tall species and cultivars in an annual, mixed, or herbaceous border; their flowers are excellent for cutting. Dwarf tracheliums, such as T. asperuloides, are suitable for a rock garden, scree bed, trough, or alpine house.
hardiness_en: Fully hardy to half hardy.
