Tiny, tiny asparagus flowers that I almost missed in a shrub.
Look at the pollen!

Gunnera manicata, the South American Giant Rhubarb. The plants grow easily to a size of 10’ x 10’, and the inner portions of stalks are edible and apparently used in salads. Single leaves can grow over 5’ in diameter!

do tumbleweeds actually blow around in the southwest or is that a myth…?
!!! They do!!!
Tumbleweed is actually an invasive species from Siberia. What happens is when the soil gets too dry the roots come out of the ground and the plant curls up into a ball so that it can blow to a new spot. When it comes into contact with wet soil its roots will unfold and it will settle down.
That is ten times more fucked up than I thought. They plant themselves again? That’s neat. I always thought they were just dead leaves and twigs in a bunch.
I like this. Tumbleweeds just fuck off when they don’t like a place, they are not like other plants who have to respect your plant rules, they are rebels.
