Messi Name for Rare Peruvian Plant
The Argentine football star Lionel Messi has been honored by having a new plant species named after him. Scientists have named it "Salfia Messi" in his tribute. This endangered plant, which can reach up to 1.5 meters, features flowers with two colors—light blue and white—that reflect the colors of the Argentine national team jersey. It is highly adaptable to arid environments at elevations between 2,000 and 2,400 meters. This tribute comes as part of a global recognition of Messi's stature, who is considered one of the greatest football players of all time, having led Argentina to the World Cup final and winning the Copa América twice.
