dendrite

I had a visit this morning from fellow Preserve Steward, Alice Dimetra. She had come hoping to find
some Prickly Pear fruit to use in her presentations but we didn’t have much luck. I lucked out, though!
I always learn something from Alice and this morning was no exception. She had read my post this
morning and thanks to her, I now know about the pattern in the rock. It’s called Dendrite.

She also brought me some of her homemade desert treats! Prickly pear marmalade and jelly and two kinds
of Mesquite cookies. Yum! All were tucked in a little Bear Grass basket. Loved it. Thanks again, Alice 🙂

Alice has a wealth of knowledge regarding the food and medicine that come from the plants and trees in the desert.
Be sure to check the McDowell Sonoran Conservancy hike schedule for her Ethnobotany and Medicine plants walks!
