Fouquieria splendens, otherwise known as Ocotillo in my neck of the woods. It's a narly plant that turns green and blooms these amazing colored flowers. Like all things that have color in the desert...it has thorns. I am thinking to myself that might be true of most things. OM or Ocotillo Mesa (World HQ of ByMiles) is full of them. Hence the name, right? Maybe a few less now, thanks to "death by septic tank". This is the view at sunset. The colors look a lot like the blossoms....
