    Hello! From a Facebook's group on beauty of Cilento (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cilento), I saw this picture of a beautiful flower.
    I know that the information is low, for example know of the leaf, ecc. but with the help of the Botanical Guide (Baroni and/or Pignatti authors), have happened in Geraniaceae, or in the Ranunculaceae or Caryophyllaceae.


    It 'was photographed on Mount Gelbison - [Novi Velia (SA)] (http://toolserver.org/~geohack/geohack.php?pagename=Gelbison&language=it&params=40.216667_N_15.333333_E_scale:10000_type:mountain)
    Could you help me identify it?
    Thanks!!!

    These are hand-painted each day by pixies.

    Not only that but they climb inside the unopened buds to do it.
