Centaurium pulchellum is a species of flowering plant in the gentian family known by the common name lesser centaury.[1] It differs from Centaurium erythraea by lacking basal rosette of leaves and by having a developed peduncle below the flowers. It is often much smaller, less than ten centimetres.[2]
