Sister species Brighamia insignis already extinct in the wild, B. rockii still has a chance to persist. https://t.co/NnuiHNYNQ3

Answer: this is Brighamia rockii (close relative of B. insignis) found in very small numbers only on the high sea cliffs of Moloka‘i. The member of the Campanulaceae (bellflower family) is named for legendary botanist Joseph Rock. https://t.co/RmZZuuxIYF
