Keysseria Wollastonii

Wollaston's keysseria, scientifically known as Keysseria wollastonii, is a rare and enigmatic plant species native to the high altitudes of the Andes. This unique flora is characterized by its striking, velvety leaves and delicate, star-shaped flowers that bloom in late summer. Despite its beauty, Keysseria wollastonii remains poorly understood due to its limited distribution and elusive habitat. Conservation efforts are critical to protect this fragile species from threats such as climate change and habitat loss. Its study offers valuable insights into the adaptation strategies of alpine plants in extreme environments.
