Sulla is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It includes eight species of annual herbs native to the Mediterranean Basin, including southern Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. They grow in dry Mediterranean-climate shrubland, bushland, thicket, and grassland and in semi-desert.[4] The genus belongs to subfamily Faboideae.
