| 6/21/26 | What's Going On Quest | Spotting Wyoming paintbrush (Castilleja linariifolia) with those bright red inflorescences out on that gravelly plain in a thicket of Apache plume was so cool. Our “what’s going on quest” was a success. Paintbrush is what’s going on! The photos are mine. Do you see the beaks? Pretty cool. | — | ||||||
| 6/14/26 | Burs in My Flip Flops and I Don't Care. | The distinctive odor of canyon ragweed (Ambrosia ambrosioides) is so Sonoran Desert. Hey, burs in your flip flops is a very Sonoran Desert thing too and some of those burs could be from kissing cousin Ambrosia deltoidea. Oh, I forgot to mention that canyon ragweed has medicinal uses, so you may want to look up its uses. So Sonoran Desert! And the plant list that I was perusing and enjoying was for the Dunbar Springs Neighborhood in Tucson. The inclusion of canyon ragweed on the list made me want to move to that neighborhood. I like the drawing of canyon… | — | ||||||

| 2/8/26 | Arizona Sister Personal | Twenty-five or thirty years ago I learned the scientific name of this butterfly as Adelpha bredowii. Then the sister butterfly of the Arizona woodlands got listed as Adelpha bredowii ssp. eulalia. Now…ta da…the Arizona Sister is Adelpha eulalia. Yay! And, eulalia does not mean “you go girl.” The specific epithet is from the Greek: eu means good and lalia means conversation, so…a good conversationalist or well spoken. Who knew? The photos are mine. They’re not great and I’m pretty sure I some have better ones, but suspect they are slides sitting in an old Carousel Projector tray (speaking of twenty-five… | — | ||||||
| 2/2/26 | That Land Is Not Vacant, Robert | The clearing of land, of biotic communities, feels like a southern Arizona affliction doesn’t it? ” We need a housing development, we need a mine, we need a wall and the desert is in the way.” Jeez… Arizona walnut (Juglans major) is the only native species of walnut in Arizona. The species J. microcarpa is not that far way to the east in New Mexico and Texas. And, there are rumors of little walnut (J. microcarpa) being found in Arizona. That would be cool, but I dunno. I’ll keep you posted. Oh, and of course Juglans major and J. microcarpa… | — | ||||||
| 1/25/26 | Desert Willows in Winter | After I produced this episode, Marian (Ms. Mesquitey) and I were driving in the desert outside Bisbee, AZ marveling at the silhouettes of viscid acacia (Vachellia vernicosa) and I realized I had written and jabbered about winter silhouettes of many deciduous trees and shrubs several times in the past… ahem, like every winter for over 30 years. Oh well, the outlines of naked branches against a borderland sky are glorious. The photos are mine of desert willows (Chilopsis linearis) very near our home. | — | ||||||
| 1/18/26 | Killing the Blues | I love desert honeysuckle (Anisacanthus thurberi). It’s a favorite plant and I think that’s because of seeing it growing and flowering in that arroyo along the road to Gates Pass way back in the olden days. My gosh doesn’t a drive to the Sonoran Desert through Gates Pass sound like fun. I haven’t done that in many years. Please don’t tell me there are strip malls all the way there. That would call for a lot more flora and fauna medication. Maybe that’s a good thing…the meds, not the malls. The photos are mine and taken at our home where… | — | ||||||

| 1/3/26 | Karoo Bush | I mention that the US Soil Conservation Service introduced and used Pentzia incana for erosion control back in the 1930s. And, I remembered that in 1980 at my first nursery gig, karoo bush was in the horticulture trade. Back then I thought that it was a pretty plant. Well, it is a pretty plant, but hello, if it spreads from seed into native habitat then that’s not good. Go native, Mister Mesquitey! Okay, okay, I will, er, I did. The photos are mine and taken the day described. I snapped them quickly to remind me to look up Pentzia when… | — | ||||||
