Info: Stem, scape, stalk or bark / 2013-03-15 / Jacksonville, TX / License: All rights reserved
Caption: This is Flame Acanthus in its dormant state. Extremely high amounts of criss crossing stems make it looks like a cobweb of little sticks. They snap off easily but in the springtime each stem opens up with new foliage.
