Schouwia purpurea
Schouwia purpurea is an annual plant adapted to desert and semi-desert conditions. The species can develop rapidly following rainfall, making use of short periods when water is available for growth and reproduction. Such seasonal plants add significantly to biodiversity in apparently sparse landscapes. Their presence supports insects and illustrates the close relationship between rainfall patterns and life in the Sahara.
