Dwarf chamaesaracha
Dwarf chamaesaracha is a petite, perennial herb that thrives in arid environments. Its modest stature, often with grey-green foliage, is crowned by delicate white to pale-yellow flowers featuring a lantern-like calyx. This low-growing plant adapts to sandy soils, spreading thinly to form a subtle yet hardy ground cover. Its diminutive fruit, akin to a tiny tomatillo, is encased in a papery husk, a distinctive trait of its survival strategy amidst dry conditions.
