Home to over 550 wild and grazing plant species, the King Salman bin Abdulaziz Royal Reserve stands as a vital ecological treasure in Saudi Arabia. Spanning key regions such as Northern Borders, Al Jouf, Tabuk, and Hail, the reserve plays a critical role in nutrient cycling and sustaining biodiversity. Among its many resilient plants is Zilla spinosa — a hardy, low-growing perennial known for its drought tolerance, waxy purplish-green leaves, and vibrant purple flowers that attract bees and support pollination.
