Kyrstenia Guadalupensis

Kyrstenia guadalupensis is a rare and enigmatic plant native to the rocky hills of southern Texas. It thrives in harsh, arid environments where few other species can survive. Known for its striking blue-violet flowers, it blooms only during brief periods of rainfall. This plant is considered a keystone species in its ecosystem, supporting a variety of pollinators and wildlife. Due to habitat loss and climate change, it faces increasing threats to its survival.
