Wellwitcha

This may look like a dead plant, but far from it. Welwitschia (the spelling Wikipedia assigns) is endemic to the Namib Desert of Namibia and Angola; it has only two actual leaves, and that same Wikipedia entry says any given plant can live for more than 1000 years. That’s not a typo! The Jomar card is not postally used and has a short message inked on the reverse. Grade: 3
