"welwischia nature drive...don't miss it!" Plants - Welwitschia, Quiver trees, Baobab Tip by cbeaujean

in a moonlike landscape,with rare and solitary plants!at first sight,desert landscape looks abandoned,without any form of life!Dusty whiteness of a naked immensity.
when in nature drive,follow the arrows.You'll meet quickly a deep and amazing moon valley...as in cappadocia,turkey....and further,rare plants called "welwischia mirabilis"...... circumference:2 meters...only 2 leaves,never stop growing,winding round itself while drying;reason why its appellation of "fossil plant".
able to live hundreds of years....
