Shadscale scrub
Shadscale scrub is a Mojave Desert plant community and vegetation type or biome, characterized by salt tolerant plants—halophytes.
It is located at higher elevations than the saltbush scrub plant community, but shares some of its plant species.[1]
Flora
The shadscale scrub vegetation type commonly includes:[1]
- hop-sage (Grayia spinosa)
- winter fat (Krascheninnikovia lanata).
Shared members with higher elevation saltbush scrub include: [1]
- goosefoot family (Chenopodiaceae) members
- four-wing saltbrush (Atriplex canescens
- shadscale (Atriplex confertifolia)
- cattle spinach, or all-scale (Atriplex polycarpa).
Other species can include:
- Calochortus excavatus — Inyo County star tulip.

gollark: This sounds like a lot, but computers *are* fairly fast.
gollark: There are maybe 1e5 common first and last names, so you can bruteforce all likely names ever in 1e10 hash operations (maybe add another factor of 10 for spelling/caps?).
gollark: Palaiaologosososd, design a new protocol using argon2 or something.
gollark: So I guess the issue is with sending fast hashes of your name at all!
