Distribution

The plant is native to the Mojave Desert, Sonoran Desert, and desert chaparral in adjacent mountains. It is found in California, northeastern Baja California, western Arizona, and southern Nevada.

It grows on desert flats and in washes, under 900 metres (3,000 ft) in elevation.

Description

Dalea mollissima is a small, mat-forming annual or perennial herbaceous plant .

Its leaves are made up of several pairs of oval-shaped fuzz-covered leaflets. The foliage is similar to Dalea mollis, but is covered with thinner, downier hairs.

It bears fluffy inflorescences of pea-like flowers in white or lavender. Its bloom period is March to May.

The fruit is a single-seeded legume pod.

gollark: This is in the reactor planner, not the mod itself.
gollark: I mean, it seems to be making it only actually work if there are no fuel cells? This makes no sense.
gollark: ```csharp public void UpdateStats() { if (FindAdjacentFuelCells() == 0) { HeatGenerationPerTick = Reactor.usedFuel.BaseHeat * Configuration.Fission.HeatGeneration; Reactor.totalHeatPerTick += HeatGenerationPerTick; Active = false; } else { HeatGenerationPerTick = 0; Active = true; }}```
gollark: I'm looking at the code for it and have absolutely no idea how or why it works.
gollark: I'm trying to figure out how moderators work. I have no idea any more.
