  • Easily one of the coolest plants to be found in the Chihuahuan desert, and goes by a long list of common names, such as the Rose of Jericho, resurrection plant,  dinosaur plant, siempre viva, stone flower, doradilla, resurrection flower and many more. This attractive member of the spikemoss family looks almost like a lush, green fern during the rainy season in its native habitat of Northern Mexico, Texas and New Mexico, but during dry spells, it desiccates into a brown dormant ball that looks like a tumbleweed, only to rehydrate back to bright, vibrant green after it rains again. These were found in abundance after the springtime rains in West Texas' Big Bend National Park.

  • This attractive desert fern is found across much of the Chihuahuan and Sonoran Deserts of the United States and Mexico and is easy to recognize by the simple pinnae or leaflets with the coppery-colored stem and undersides of the leaves. Both the tops and bottoms of the leaves are covered in tiny scales. Reportedly toxic to sheep, this and many other ferns like it were found in abundance in the Big Bend National Park of West Texas.
