The species is sometimes referred to in different varieties. Only var. horizontalis is believed to originate from the wild and therefore is the only taxon considered in this context. The type specimen was collected from Crete. Populations which are questionably wild are also known from southern Turkey and northern Iran, where it is very vulnerable.
