Arenaria Tenuifolia Var. Heteromalla

Sand pink, scientifically known as Arenaria tenuifolia var. heteromalla, is a rare and striking flowering plant native to the arid regions of the southwestern United States. This delicate species thrives in harsh, sandy environments where few other plants can survive. Its vibrant pink blossoms stand out against the barren landscape, making it a symbol of resilience in extreme conditions. The plant’s unique adaptations allow it to flourish in low-nutrient soils and high temperatures. Despite its beauty, Sand pink faces increasing threats from habitat loss and climate change.
