The September is Turpentine Bush!🌿✨

Native to the Mojave and surrounding deserts, Turpentine Bush (Ericameria laricifolia) is a hardy, low-water evergreen shrub that thrives in hot, dry conditions. In late summer and fall, it produces clusters of bright yellow flowers that attract butterflies and other native pollinators, adding a pop of color to the desert landscape.

With its dense, evergreen foliage and drought tolerance, Turpentine Bush is a great choice for water-wise landscapes, providing habitat, seasonal color, and year-round interest with very little maintenance.
