Ephedra aphylla is a common leaning shrub in the Middle East deserts. Here you can see its fleshy cones. They attract birds that enjoy the pulp and disperse the seeds.

Description: Mormon tea (Ephedra viridis). "The Indians prepared Ephedra as a tea for stomach and bowel disorders, for colds, fever, and headache. The dried and powdered twigs were used in poultices for burns and ointments for sores. One tribe made a decoction of the entire plant and drank it to help stop bleeding." I'd always heard that the tea was named for actual Mormons who used it as a coffee substitute, but Jean said that it was named for a man named Mormon who was a snake oil salesman. She also said the tea has a similar flavor to green tea, and that she makes a jelly from the tea as well. It's also high in vitamin C. www.gcrg.org/bqr/7-3/mormon-tea.htm.

Summary[edit] Description: In a year that has had good rainfall at the appropriate time, a springtime drive out to Cottonwood Valley can be worthwhile if it's wildflowers you're searching for. This is what spurred us to visit this area south of State Route 160 just west of the Late Night parking area. In previous years, the ground cover of colorful flowers has been beautiful and expansive. This year was a little disappointing but not totally a wash. A hike along the Dead Horse Loop trail had us crouching next to the trail and in nearby washes to get photos. Of course there are Desert Paintbrush to see, but we were also interested those that were harder to spot. This included rarer sights such as Groundsel, Prince's Plume, Gooding’s Verbena, Showy Goldeneye, Yellow Cryptantha and Desert Sandwort. It has been a great year for Ephedra, as most plants are blooming heavily. As we got higher up on the trail we stopped seeing blooms. On the way back down after temperatures had risen a bit, we came across many Northern White-Skipper and Sagebrush Checkerspot butterflies pollinating the Mojave Goldenbush. There was also an impressive show by a colorful Side-Blotched Lizard doing push-ups alongside the trail. Photo by Chelise Simmons/BLM/2013. Date: 25 April 2013, 10:47. Source: Green Ephedra.
