Ocotillo in Bloom
by Lee Reeder

The Ocotillo (Fonquieria splendens) is a strange plant of the lower deserts. Its branches reach about 20 feet in the air. Flowers and even the leaves appear only briefly after winter rains, but they both wither and fall away as the soil dries out. We caught this one with both leaves and flowers in spring after a very wet winter (2004-2005) in the Pinto Basin of Joshua Tree National Park.
