Ask The Plant Expert: I have this “weed” in my Albuquerque, NM area garden. I have searched for hours in various wild flower and weed identification websites and can’t find it anywhere. It has woody stems and leathery, succulent leaves. I would like to move it to another part of my garden, but would also like to know what it is. Any ideas?
Flower Shop Network Plant Expert Reply: The person helping me identify the plant believes it is a Abronia Umbellata or Abronia Villoso.
One way to get a true positive identification is to take a leaf, bloom and picture to your state extension service office.
Hope this information is helpful.
Please let me know if I can help with anything else.
Generally, easy and simple to is to get started on with a ground blend that has some organic and
natural elements in it already.
