Dr. Seuss tree



Well, that's what we call it anyway. I have no idea what it really is.

These plants are growing alongside the road about 3/4 mile south of our house and we've been watching with interest all year - they didn't have those tall parts last year - those grew up this spring. The picture doesn't reveal how impressive the things are in person. The bottom of the plant is like a huge aloe vera - it's over 3' high, and the top part must be 12' or more.

Sometimes living in west Texas is like living on another planet!
