This time Tenea and Kelsey discuss Rubber Rabbitbrush, or Ericameria nauseousa. This is a member of the Asteraceae family. Learn why we love this late blooming shrub and just love its beautiful, complicated bright yellow flower in contrast to its gray-green leaves. We also discuss the many uses of this plant by people and by jackrabbits. And the difference between zeroscaping and xeriscaping. Stick with us to hear some old dog breathing and Lexi's barks.
