Description

Lomatium mohavense is a hairy gray-green perennial herb growing 10 to 40 centimeters tall from an elongated taproot. There is generally no stem, the erect or spreading leaves and inflorescence emerging from ground level. The leaves may approach 20 centimeters long, their blades intricately divided and subdivided into crowded clusters of tiny segments. The inflorescence is an umbel of yellow to brownish to dark purple flowers.[2]

gollark: Apparently bad chargers can cause problems like touchscreens not working properly, but I haven't experienced that in *years*.

gollark: Basically every cheap phone I've had just broke from me damaging it in some way, while your expensive iPhones have had some sort of weird internal failure, which is kind of funny.
gollark: I'd like to replace it, but obviously now isn't really a great time for that, and there... aren't really any good replacements.
gollark: I'm using some random cheap phone from about two and a half years back, and it's held up well apart from the touchscreen not responding half the time now and also the battery being fried.
