Pineland scaly pink
Pineland scaly pink is a diminutive, resilient grass-like plant thriving in sandy soils typical of its southeastern US habitats. It features thin, wiry stems and minute, often overlooked flowers that camouflage in its spiky appearance. Adapted to survive in open, disturbed grounds, pineland scaly pink utilizes its tufted, needle-like leaves to minimize water loss, making it a hardy pioneer in challenging conditions.
