Onosma is a genus of flowering plants in the family Boraginaceae. They are native to the Mediterranean and western Asia. They grow in dry, sunny habitats with rocky, sandy substrates.[2] Some are popular as rock garden plants.[3]

Estimates of the number of species in the genus range from about 85[4] or 88[5] to 150.[2][6] As of July 2024 Plants of the World Online accepts 235 species.[1] The systematics are unclear and the group is in need of study and revision.[2]
