Chamisa In Bloom - ACHOO!

Chamisa in bloom along Main Hill Road into Los Alamos. Chrysothamnus nauseosus, also known as rubber rabbitbrushgray rabbitbrush, or Chamisa makes many with allergies sneeze.

  1. I hadn't heard of chamisa before so I googled it and that led to me exploring a man's artwork page that featured a painting with it and getting distracted. It reminds me of scotch broom, at least from the picture.

  2. Sounds like scotch broom a pesky plant? We even have Chamisa Elementary School here in White Rock.
