Kadua

Kadua is a genus of flowering plants primarily found in tropical climates, thriving in moist, shaded forest areas. These plants generally exhibit small, glossy leaves and form clusters of vibrant, white to pale blue flowers. The dense foliage and low-lying flowers of kadua play a crucial role in their adaptation to understory habitats, allowing them to maximize light capture and successfully compete in their dense, competitive environments.
