Gentiana clusii, commonly known as flower of the sweet-lady or Clusius' gentian, is a large-flowered, short-stemmed gentian, native to Europe. It is named after Carolus Clusius, one of the earliest botanists to study alpine flora.
This species is very similar to Gentiana acaulis, but Gentiana clusii differs in the absence of green stripes inside the corolla, by a more pointed shape of the corners between the petals, and preferring areas underlaid by limestone.
