Azorella Saxifraga

Azorean saxifrage, scientifically known as Azorella saxifraga, is a rare and unique plant endemic to the Azores. It thrives in harsh, high-altitude environments where few other species can survive. This plant is characterized by its compact, cushion-like growth form and its ability to endure extreme weather conditions. Its presence is a testament to the resilience of flora in isolated island ecosystems. The Azorean saxifrage holds significant ecological and botanical importance in the region's biodiversity.
