Fouquierrias are the Occotillos of the southwest. Their flam- 
ing flowers are the delight of many travelers. The first 
leaves on new branches are borne on long petioles. These 
leaves dry up to expose the spine buried in the petiole. 
Later leaves are short petioled and spring from the axils of 
the spines. In the desert country they bear leaves when 
ever there is rain and drop them when the ground dries 
out. Since they are often naked the Mexicans call them 
Adam’s Tree. The kinds we offer from Lower California, 
are more branching than the Splendens and cannot be 
grown to blooming size in the ordinary home. They are 
not hardy except in the extreme south and southwest.
