Silene Veselskyi Subsp. Glutinosa

Silene veselskyi subsp. glutinosa is a rare and fascinating plant species native to the arid regions of Central Asia. It is known for its distinctive pink to purple flowers that bloom during the summer months. The subspecies is characterized by its sticky leaves and stems, which help it retain moisture in harsh environments. Due to its limited distribution and habitat specificity, it is considered vulnerable to environmental changes. This plant offers valuable insights into the adaptations of flora in extreme climates.
