The actual plant lives approximately 300 years, however all copies are identical hence all the wild plants stemming from this parent are considered as one living organism. Another interesting plant is Welwitschia that can be found in Namimbia and Angola. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welwitschia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welwitschia). Although under threat of extinction the plants living in Angola are better protected than the plants in Namibia, owing to the relatively high concentration of landmines in Angola, which keep collectors away!
