Camphorosma

Camphorosma is a genus of flowering plants in the family Amaranthaceae, found in northern Africa, southern and eastern Europe, Crimea, Russia, Anatolia, the Caucasus, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Central Asia, the Altai, western Siberia, Xinjiang in China, and Mongolia.[2] Annuals or subshrubs, they can be distinguished from closely related taxa such as Bassia by their flattened perianths which have four lobes, inflorescences with multicellular glandular hairs, a distinct C4 leaf anatomy type (called the Camphorosma type), and a chromosome count of 2n = 12.[3][4]

gollark: > I know I can significantly increase my privacy but I'm just kind of floating where I can I will increase my privacy and when where I can I will increase my privacy and where I can't I just ignore itWell, you're doing a bad job of caring about privacy given that you bought a Google Home instead of... not doing that?
gollark: My phone runs LineageOS without Google services installed.
gollark: I just avoid using Google services where possible and have Privacy Badger/uBlock Origin on to stop most of Google's googling.
gollark: Just saying "well, I can't be entirely private so WHY EVEN TRY I'll just sell my soul to Google" is moronically stupid, some offense.
