An extremely cool banner! I thought it was a jellyfish at first!

Thank you all for the kind words and acorns. This species is native to the California coast near Los Angeles and offshore islands. The plant in the picture is about a year-old propagation. It's in a 3 gallon pot and will soon go in the ground. Once established, these plants require no water in our climate, and they bring on the hummingbirds like few others. Big Grin

Great banner! On first glance I thought it was coral.
