Kramerias

Also known as: Rhatany

Kramerias is distinguished by its vividly colored flowers and wiry, often tangled stems. Predominantly found in arid environments, this plant family thrives in challenging conditions by forming symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, aiding its survival and growth in nutrient-poor soils. The striking blooms not only provide a splash of color but are also vital for attracting pollinators in sparse landscapes.
