Vernonia Angustifolia Subsp. Scaberrima

Vernonia angustifolia subsp. scaberrima is a lesser-known but ecologically significant plant native to specific regions of Mexico. This subspecies is characterized by its narrow, serrated leaves and small, yellowish flowers that bloom in late summer. Despite its modest appearance, it plays a vital role in supporting local pollinators and maintaining biodiversity. Its rugged texture and unique adaptations make it a resilient plant in challenging environments. Due to habitat loss, it faces increasing threats to its survival.
