Scrophularia arguta

I encountered this one close to a vertical cliff that blocks the sun for many months of the year where only the early morning rays reach the ground. In addition to the protective shade the cliff is a source of water seeping from crack and in many places constantly dripping to the ground. This perfect conditions for this species, which I encountered in its very prime where the flowers were in their prime.

It is also found in North Africa, Arabia and Somalia.

Elevation 297 meters.
