Hello Krystian,

I like the way you have caught the contrast between the green of the leaves upper side with the silver of the underside.

Regards Steve

nice capture, looks also similar to Veratrum, TFS Ori

Hy Krystian
I think that Ori has right, resemble much more with Veratrum than with Gentiana lutea. The leaves have parallel veins, characteristic for monocotiledonous plants, and Veratrum is belonging to Liliaceae family, a monocot.And also, G. lutea is not a plant that you can meet often in the mountains, is really rare.
