Adnaria Chamissonis

Adnaria chamissonis is a unique flowering plant known for its striking violet-blue petals and delicate structure. Native to the coastal regions of southern California, it thrives in sandy soils and salty air. This species is often found in beach dunes and along the shoreline, where it plays a vital role in stabilizing sand dunes. Its blooming period typically occurs in late spring, adding a splash of color to the otherwise barren landscape. Due to its limited range and habitat vulnerability, Adnaria chamissonis is considered a rare and endangered species.
