From the Ripley Desert Woodland trail brochure. This looks like Desert Parsley. Habitat: Dry plains and slopes, 2000'-7000', creosotebush scrub to pinyon-juniper woodland, Mojave Desert. |
The Desert
Woodland has a number of different plants some of them are chia,
rock cress, golden gilia, filaree, goldenfields, coreopsis,
fiddleneck, blue diskd, pennyroyal, vinegar weed and scarlet bugler
according to the trail guide.
These are just the flowering plant types! Rather amazing considering this area is a "desert". |
