Welwitschia Mirabilis

I learnt about the welwitschia mirabilis, this plant looked very interesting to me because it lives in the large deserts and also grows to be very large in size. Another great thing about this plant is that it drys out really fast so it could camouflage with the sand and this made it way easier for this plant to catch its food. This plant is also known for its amazing way of adapting to the extreme heat. This plant only has two leaves but since its soo large it makes it look like it has more then two also this plant lives up to 1000 years while other plants only live 5-10 years. This plant grows very slowly so it has adapted to the Namibian desert very well.
