Mionandra Fischeri

Mionandra fischeri is a rare and enigmatic plant species native to the remote highlands of New Caledonia. Known for its striking pink and white flowers, it thrives in nutrient-poor soils and humid climates. First discovered in the 19th century, it has remained largely unstudied due to its limited distribution and elusive nature. This plant is considered a living relic, offering insights into ancient evolutionary adaptations. Its conservation status highlights the fragility of unique ecosystems in the face of environmental change.
