Glycine Wightii Subsp. Petitiana

Wight's glycine, scientifically known as Glycine wightii subsp. petitiana, is a rare and unique legume native to the arid regions of southern India. This plant thrives in harsh, dry environments where few other species can survive, showcasing its remarkable adaptability. Its delicate pink or white flowers bloom during the monsoon season, adding a touch of beauty to the otherwise barren landscape. The plant's ability to fix nitrogen in the soil makes it ecologically significant for sustaining local ecosystems. Due to habitat loss and overgrazing, Wight's glycine is now considered endangered, highlighting the urgent need for conservation efforts.
