“There are only a few plants in the flora of Europe as interesting and mysterious as the Ramonda serbica.

Ramonda serbica with its unusual ability to survive unfavorable conditions is, indeed, the “phoenix

plant”. In addition to its full protection, human actions are needed to prevent and mitigate climate

change to encourage the survival of the phoenix plant.”
