    Best wishes to all visiting members. These few photographs were taken yesterday 5th March. I thought this plant would be easy to identify due to it's white mottled leaves, but I was wrong, I havn't been able to find any photographs, illustrations or descriptions to help identify this plant. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

    Dandelion of some sort, Taraxacum maybe.

    I am pretty sure now that this is Crepis sancta L. (Babc.) This is widely dispersed throughout Italy. The white marks on the leaves I found mis-leading. There are so many examples with marked leaves and without the marks.
