Sinapis alba
The seeds of White Mustard (Sinapis alba) are an ingredient in table mustard. Like other mustard family (Brassicaceae) plants, these mustards have flowers with four petals arranged in a cross and pod-like fruits. The fruits of S. alba are bristly and hairy with a sabre-like beak.
Spotted in the little valley between Pnyx and Aeropagus, north-west of the Acropolis of Athens.
