Borya

Borya is a family of slow-growing, perennial plants native to Australia. These plants feature sturdy, spear-shaped leaves that emerge directly from a short, often subterranean stem. Adapted to arid environments, their thick, waxy leaves help retain moisture, making them highly drought-resistant. The flowers, usually arranged on a tall spike, can persist even in harsh conditions.
