Paepalanthus Niveus

Paepalanthus niveus is a rare and striking plant native to the arid regions of South America. Known for its unique white flowers and compact growth habit, it thrives in harsh desert environments. This plant is often referred to as the "snowflower" due to the appearance of its blooms. It is a member of the Bromeliaceae family, which includes many tropical and subtropical species. Despite its beauty, Paepalanthus niveus remains elusive and is rarely seen in the wild.
