Veronica Cardiocarpa Subsp. Nanella

Veronica cardiocarpa subsp. nanella is a rare and delicate flowering plant native to the alpine regions of New Zealand. This subspecies is distinguished by its small, compact growth habit and its striking violet-blue flowers that bloom in early spring. It thrives in cool, moist environments and is often found in rocky or gravelly soils. Due to its limited distribution and habitat specificity, it is considered a vulnerable species. Conservation efforts are essential to protect this unique member of the plant kingdom.
