Ocotillo

The other day while playing the beautiful and scenic Stone Eagle Club, I captured some of the incredible plants and vistas on the hills and mountains surrounding the Palm Desert club. This ocotillo was just bursting with color!

 The stunning Tom Doak designed golf course is nestled in the Santa Rosa Mountains and the San Jacinto National Monument and is surrounded by thousands of acres of protected land.

Kathy that is a beautiful picture. I wonder if that Ocotillo would grow here in Southern Texas. I does get hot as hell here,

Hey Kathy,

Beautfiul shot my friend. Looks a little like a few photos we took 2 weeks ago while hiking the "ladders in Painted Canyon" just past Mecca at the BLM land. Absolutely beautiful shots, thanks.

Thank you all for checking in!  These ocotillo have spiny thorns and porous stems... but I love it when they bloom in the spring!  K
