Welwitschia Mirabillis 1

We were amazed to see so many of the desert plants. They are thousands of years old and there were extremely big ones here. They are on the endangered list but it was fantastic to see hundreds here.

The plant starts with only two leaves. Over the years these two leaves get groken up by the wind so that it looks like it has more.
