@NutmegSomething took this picture in the desert, in the Palm Springs area, these plants live here without water for most of the year, so their water storage systems are working overtime!

@NutmegSomething Also took this picture of a cactus at a Naval base, we do not see these in IL. so actually really cool to see one out here

@NutmegSomething This is also the oldest tree, at least in the U.S. located in the white mountains in California, which is somewhere around 5,000 years old. It is called, Methuselah.

@NutmegSomething also while I was in California, I found these two palm trees crossed each other in an X formation, I dont know if it was just natural or not, but still pretty cool.

@NutmegSomething I went to California over spring break this year and visited Joshua tree state park, these Joshua Trees are only found here and are monocots, Yucca brevifolia is in in the subgroup of flowering plants that also includes grasses and orchids.

@NutmegSomething This is the seed vault which houses all of the seed known today. It is used as a safe place for the seeds if life on Earth was to cease, we would still have these seeds and be able to continue life/
