The Cirio or Boojum Tree (Fouquieria columnaris): Headed south from the border
http://ciriotree.blogspot.com/2011/04/only-few-miles-outside-el-rosario-cirio.html
The Cirio or Boojum Tree (Fouquieria columnaris). All about the world's strangest tree. Monday, March 15, 2010. Headed south from the border. It seems probable that cirios reproduce only in certain favorable years, perhaps decades apart. Cirio doing an imitation of Groucho Marx. They are the most variable, individual trees. Some are densely leafed out on only the trunk (with no branches), looking like green pipe cleaners. Others have straight horizontal branches 1-2 feet long, which are also leaf...They ...

The Cirio or Boojum Tree (Fouquieria columnaris): December 2008
http://ciriotree.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
The Cirio or Boojum Tree (Fouquieria columnaris). All about the world's strangest tree. Monday, December 1, 2008. Seedlings of cirios are extremely rare. During my 2008 trip, and again in the spring of 2010, I looked for seedlings. Below are speculations from a search in December, 2008, along the highway about 50 miles north of Catavina. On my evening walk, I tried to figure out the boojums. The biggest question is—where are the seedlings? The smallest cirio I found. Here are some possible explanations:.

It’s barren, spiny, and filled with garbage. But it has personality. I swore I wasn’t going to take many more photos of cirios on my way north, but I can’t resist, because they have so much personality. Each one is more outrageous than the last. The famous caterpillar cactus. Much more twisted here. Here the elephant tre...

http://ciriotree.blogspot.com/p/threats.html
The Cirio or Boojum Tree (Fouquieria columnaris). All about the world's strangest tree. Threats to the Cirio. Is very common. Trees that root into rock are less vulnerable to blowdown. Epiphytes in the cirios might make them more vulnerable to blowdown. The trees apparently reproduce only in certain years with favorable conditions, possibly after very infrequent heavy rains. After searching for very many hour, in scores of locations, I only found a few trees under a foot tall. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
