6 most common species：
Slangbos
Slangbos is a graceful shrub with feathery foliage, prized for its delicate, plumy texture. Its fine, needle-like leaves and soft, purple-pink flowering tufts make it a standout in arid landscapes. Thriving in sandy soils, slangbos is adapted to withstand drought, its plumes dancing in the breeze, attracting pollinators and offering a splash of color amidst harsh conditions.
Stoebe aethiopica
Stoebe aethiopica is a robust, resilient shrub native to the rocky and arid regions of Africa. Its striking silver-grey foliage and delicate, white to pinkish flower heads are not only a defense against harsh sunlight but also an adaptation to attract pollinators in sparse environments. This plant's ability to thrive in poor soil conditions makes it a testament to survival in challenging climates.
Stoebe alopecuroides
Stoebe alopecuroides is a resilient shrub native to arid regions, known for its ability to thrive in dry, poor soil conditions. With its silver-green foliage, stoebe alopecuroides presents a bushy appearance, resembling the tail of a fox, which is mirrored in its species name. Tiny, fluffy flowers cluster at the tips of the stems, adding a soft, purple hue that attracts pollinators despite the harsh habitat.
Stoebe muirii
Stoebe muirii is a resilient shrub native to rocky outcrops and sandstone slopes, where its silver-grey foliage and fine, needle-like leaves form a striking contrast against arid landscapes. This hardy plant is distinguished by its rounded, dense form and clusters of tiny, pink-purple flowers that emerge on the tips, attracting various pollinators while adapting well to dry, challenging conditions.
Stoebe spiralis
Stoebe spiralis is characterized by its striking spiral-shaped foliage, which coils around the stem, giving this plant a unique and distinctive appearance. The narrow, silvery-green leaves are adapted to the plant's arid environment, minimizing water loss and reflecting harsh sunlight. Bloom with purple or pink flowers, they add a touch of color to their native, rocky landscapes.
Stoebe cyathuloides
Stoebe cyathuloides is a resilient shrub notable for its silvery-green foliage and abundant, purple flower heads that add a splash of color to arid landscapes. Its dense, needle-like leaves, often covered in fine hairs, offer a unique texture, aiding in water conservation and reflecting intense sunlight. Thriving in poor soils, stoebe cyathuloides exemplifies adaptation in harsh environments, attracting pollinators while resisting drought with deep root systems.

Dracaena
Dracaena are popular house plants that are easy to grow. They can tolerate low-light conditions and require little watering. Their leaves range from variegated to dark green. Their characteristic traits include woody stems that grow slowly but offer a striking appearance for small spaces such as apartments or offices.
Fig trees
Fig trees have been cultivated in many regions for their fruits, particularly the common fig, F. carica. Most of the species have edible fruits, although the common fig is the only one of commercial value. Fig trees are also important food sources for wildlife in the tropics, including monkeys, bats, and insects.
Brambles
Brambles are members of the rose family, and there are hundreds of different types to be found throughout the European countryside. They have been culturally significant for centuries; Christian folklore stories hold that when the devil was thrown from heaven, he landed on a bramble bush. Their vigorous growth habit can tangle into native plants and take over.
Maples
The popular tree family known as maples change the color of their leaves in the fall. Many cultural traditions encourage people to watch the colors change, such as momijigari in Japan. Maples popular options for bonsai art. Alternately, their sap is used to create maple syrup.
Prunus
Prunus is a genus of flowering fruit trees that includes almonds, cherries, plums, peaches, nectarines, and apricots. These are often known as "stone fruits" because their pits are large seeds or "stones." When prunus trees are damaged, they exhibit "gummosis," a condition in which the tree's gum (similar to sap) is secreted to the bark to help heal external wounds.
Nightshades
Nightshades is a large and diverse genus of plants, with more than 1500 different types worldwide. This genus incorporates both important staple food crops like tomato, potato, and eggplant, but also dangerous poisonous plants from the nightshade family. The name was coined by Pliny the Elder almost two thousand years ago.
Roses
Most species of roses are shrubs or climbing plants that have showy flowers and sharp thorns. They are commonly cultivated for cut flowers or as ornamental plants in gardens due to their attractive appearance, pleasant fragrance, and cultural significance in many countries. The rose hips (fruits) can also be used in jams and teas.
Oaks
Oaks are among the world's longest-lived trees, sometimes growing for over 1,000 years! The oldest known oak tree is in the southern United States and is over 1,500 years old. Oaks produce an exceedingly popular type of wood which is used to make different products, from furniture and flooring to wine barrels and even cosmetic creams.
