A new species of wild orchid is discovered in Syria
In ecology news, a new species of wild orchid is discovered in Syria. The rare flower was sighted close to the al-Ghamqa River, located to the east of Tartous city, by environmental researcher Mr. Iyad Al-Salim. He named it the Syrian lynx orchid. Yellowish green in color, the orchid blooms in the middle of February, which is earlier than other types of flowers. Mr. Al-Salim has advocated the founding of a seed bank for Syria's wild flora, so that their future existence is ensured.
Congratulations, Mr. Al-Salim, on your exquisite discovery. May the beautiful Syrian lynx orchid and all other magnificent greenery of your country flourish evermore.
