Pyrus Albovii

Pyrus albovii is a rare and lesser-known species of apple tree native to the mountainous regions of central Asia. It is characterized by its small, white flowers and edible, tart fruits that are often overlooked in favor of more common apple varieties. Despite its limited distribution, this plant holds significant ecological value and is of interest to botanists and conservationists. Its unique features make it a subject of ongoing study and a potential candidate for genetic research. Due to habitat loss and climate change, Pyrus albovii faces increasing threats to its survival.
