A. albus is about the same height as A. aestivus and not disimilar in apearance but found typically basic soils in hills in France, Spain, the Pyrenees and the Alps as well as north Africa. The large flowers and long flowering spikes make it an excellent plant for cultivation so it is sold in some nurseries and garden centres.
