Turpinia Occidentalis

Turpinia occidentalis is a rare and enigmatic plant native to the mountainous regions of western North America. It is known for its striking silver-green foliage and delicate, fragrant flowers that bloom in early spring. This species thrives in cool, moist environments and is often found in shaded forest understories. Due to habitat loss and climate change, Turpinia occidentalis is considered endangered and faces significant conservation challenges. Its unique ecological role and limited distribution make it a subject of interest for botanists and conservationists alike.
