Gisekia

Gisekia is a unique family of flowering plants, predominantly small and herbaceous, characterized by their simplistic structure and vibrant, often inconspicuous flowers. Native to arid or semiarid regions, gisekia has developed specialized adaptations such as succulent leaves to manage water scarcity effectively. These traits allow gisekia to thrive in challenging environments where water is a limited resource.
