Not only that but half of the 30+ plant species unique to the Sinai peninsula <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eeaa.gov.eg\/portals\/0\/eeaaReports\/protect\/Leaflets\/stkatherine-english.pdf\">are located here<\/a>. Among these are plants like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenia.net\/plant\/artemisia-schmidtiana-nana-wormwood\">dwarf shrub Artemesia<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plantingtree.com\/products\/pistachio-hydrangea\">pistachio shrub<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/powo.science.kew.org\/taxon\/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:702756-1\">Sinai primrose<\/a>, and the Rosa Arabica. The <a href=\"https:\/\/alchetron.com\/Rubus-ulmifolius-subsp.-sanctus\">Rubus Sanctus<\/a> \u2014 commonly referred to as the Holy Bramble \u2014 is among those particularly appreciated by monks at the monastery.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch your step:<\/strong> It\u2019s also fairly common to come across a number of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eeaa.gov.eg\/en-us\/topics\/nature\/protectorates\/protectoratesdescription.aspx\">desert variety herbs<\/a> like horsemint (or habaq), oregano, sorrel wood, thyme and baathran or small flowers like <a href=\"https:\/\/colplanta.org\/taxon\/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:1013480-1\">Glebionis coronaria<\/a> (or the crown daisy) and sakraan. It\u2019s also worth noting that over half of these recorded plant species in the area have some kind of <a href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2022\/2\/ST.-CATHERINE-MEDICINAL-PLANTS-ASSOCIATION.pdf\">medicinal or aromatic benefit (pdf)<\/a>. If you\u2019re thinking about heading out there to explore for yourself, be mindful of the fact that many of these plant species are coming under <a href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2022\/2\/ipaegyptconsersuggestions_actionplans_finalversion.pdf\">increasing threat (pdf)<\/a> from trampling and tourist activity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Closer inland you'll see some of the more characteristic plants of the <\/strong><strong>region: <\/strong>Irrigation canals and ditches near the Nile support 100 species of grasses including bamboo and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/plant\/esparto\">halfa<\/a>. Reeds like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fs.fed.us\/database\/feis\/plants\/graminoid\/arudon\/all.html\">Arundo Donax<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fs.fed.us\/database\/feis\/plants\/graminoid\/phraus\/all.html\">Phragmites Australis<\/a> (Common Reed) as well as the date palm are also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/place\/Egypt\/Plant-and-animal-life\">extremely common<\/a> by the Nile in the Delta region.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Further south in Aswan and in much of the Red Sea governorate<\/strong> several species of acacia dominate. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eeaa.gov.eg\/portals\/0\/eeaaReports\/protect\/Leaflets\/salugaghazal-english.pdf\">In Aswan<\/a> there are some five distinct species of acacia as well as tamarisk and henna plants. In the southern portion of the Red Sea governorate desert vegetation like tamarisk plants and mangroves <a href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2022\/2\/8-Plant-Communities-in-Wadi-el-Gemal%E2%80%93Hamata.pdf\">are hugely popular<\/a>. The <a href=\"https:\/\/tropical.theferns.info\/viewtropical.php?id=Avicennia+marina\">Avicenna Marina<\/a> (or the grey or white mangrove) is one of the most common of the 55 mangrove species in the region. <a href=\"https:\/\/tropical.theferns.info\/viewtropical.php?id=Tamarix+aphylla\">Tamarix Aphylla<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/powo.science.kew.org\/taxon\/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:828178-1\">Tamarix Nilotica<\/a> are some of the most abundant of the Tamarisk family. Shrubs like <a href=\"https:\/\/powo.science.kew.org\/taxon\/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:779348-1\">Salvadora Persica<\/a> (or the toothbrush tree), the <a href=\"https:\/\/eol.org\/pages\/5161079\">Zilla Spinosa<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/plants.jstor.org\/compilation\/pulicaria.crispa\">Pulicaria Crispa<\/a> are also very common.
