Lesley,

The flowers certainly look like that, don't they?  I thought the same thing when I first saw it, but what amazing foliage. :o

Original material
http://ww2.bgbm.org/herbarium/view_large.cfm?idThumb=276574&SpecimenPK=80422&Loan=1&Flash=True&SpecimenSequenz=1
Certainly not an endemite of Bolgar. Hartvig in the Mountain Flora of Greece claims
Ptilotrichum cyclocarpum ssp. cyclocarpum Greece, Makedonia, Turkey
Ptilotrichum cyclocarpum ssp. pindicum NW Greece, Albania
Ptilotrichum rupestre Italy
If lumped together and transferred to Aurinia, the first one of course becomes
Aurinia rupestris ssp. cyclocarpa
and the third
Aurinia rupestris subsp. rupestris.
The question is whether the identification is correct.
