Varronia Roraimae

Roraima varronia, scientifically known as Varronia roraimae, is a rare and fascinating plant native to the tepuis of Venezuela. This unique species thrives in the nutrient-poor soils of these isolated mountain tabletops, adapting to extreme environmental conditions. Its striking appearance and limited distribution make it a subject of great interest for botanists and conservationists. The plant's discovery in 2014 sparked renewed efforts to study and protect its fragile ecosystem. As a symbol of the Amazon's hidden biodiversity, Roraima varronia highlights the importance of preserving these rare habitats.
