| 75 | This is an example of a low-branching desert willow, a deciduous flowering tree of the desert Southwest. The tree is not really a willow in spite of its appearance. Actually it is a relative of the catalpa and is found growing along dry water courses of Chichu and Sonoran (Mexico) deserts. The showy flowers occur in spring and summer and range in color from white to purple. |
