Perityle Rupestris

Perityle rupestris is a small, hardy flowering plant native to the coastal regions of southern California and Baja California. It thrives in rocky, well-drained soils and is often found growing on cliffs and along sea shores. This plant is known for its delicate, blue to purple flowers that bloom in the spring. Its ability to withstand harsh coastal conditions makes it an important part of the local ecosystem. Despite its beauty, Perityle rupestris remains relatively unknown to the general public.
