Festuca Trabutii

Trabut's fescue, scientifically known as Festuca trabutii, is a rare and resilient grass species native to the arid regions of the Middle East and parts of Central Asia. This plant is adapted to survive in harsh, dry environments with minimal water and nutrient availability. Its compact growth habit and deep root system allow it to thrive in rocky and sandy soils where few other plants can establish themselves. Despite its limited geographic range, Trabut's fescue plays a crucial role in stabilizing fragile ecosystems and preventing soil erosion. Its unique characteristics make it an important subject for botanical research and conservation efforts.
