Rare Purple-Flowered 'Zilla' Spotted in Saudi Northern Borders Region

Zilla, the plant with striking purple flowers, has recently been spotted in the serene valleys of the Northern Borders region.
The rare and beautiful plant is often called locally "shabram".
The chairman of the board of directors of the Aman Environmental Association, Nasser bin Arshid Al-Majlad, said that the Northern Borders region, with its diverse terrain, supports a variety of plant life, each with its unique value. Zilla, in particular, plays a crucial role in the local ecosystem, providing nectar for bees and forage for livestock, especially camels. However, due to overgrazing and other factors, the population of this plant has declined significantly in recent years, SPA reported.
The Aman Environmental Association is dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of preserving the region's natural heritage. By highlighting the beauty and ecological significance of plants like the Zilla, the association aims to inspire individuals to take action and protect the environment.
