Read the excerpt from the article Amazing Plants:
There are some plants alive today that were living when the pyramids were being built. It may not be pretty, and it might not grow to an impressive size, but the Welwitchia mirabilis, or desert onion, can live for thousands of years. It appears small and scrawny, with only a couple of leaves at one time. The round fruit it produces is edible and apparently tasty when prepared correctly. The baobab tree is one of the longest-lived trees in the world. The baobab, also known as the water bottle tree, stores thousands of liters of water in its massive trunk. The oldest known baobab is estimated to be at least 6,000 years old.
