The power of plants

Marsh samphire can be found along all the shorelines of Europe and every year produces cylindrical branches that resemble a type of ragged cactus. Beneath this ragged exterior, the plant has developed a quite remarkable biological organization - it is halophilic (it likes salt) and perfectly able to survive in its harsh coastline conditions. It also resists tidal flows by regulating the water level in its cells. Used as a food because of its high content of vitamins and minerals, marsh samphire also produces an oil which is perfectly adapted for use in skin care products.
