"The plant is unequally distributed and prefers rocky limestone places at 2000–2900 m altitude."[wikipedia]

M: "I used to climb limestone mountains when I was in highschool back in Indo, and we occasionally found these flowers, and not knowing that it means a lot for our bf/gf we just ignore them, but now that you mentioned it, I recall that mum used to tell me about this flower"
Chloe: "next time if you go back there and climb, get me one okay, hahaha"
M: "the flower will die when I reach here, as if our border security will let plants pass the border"***
