Ammosperma Cinereum

Ammosperma cinereum is a rare and fascinating plant species known for its unique adaptations to arid environments. It thrives in dry, sandy soils where few other plants can survive. This plant has developed specialized structures to conserve water and withstand extreme temperatures. Its bluish-gray appearance is a result of a waxy coating that reduces evaporation. Despite its resilience, Ammosperma cinereum remains poorly studied and is at risk due to habitat loss and climate change.
