Tidestromia
Tidestromia is a genus with about six or seven species of annual or subshrub perennial plants native to desert and semi-arid regions of the western United States, Mexico and tropical America in the family Amaranthaceae. A common name of some species is honeysweet.[1] The stems are reddish and contrast conspicuously with the silvery leaves. This genus is named for the botanist Ivar Tidestrom.[2][3]

gollark: Isn't /dev/random the secure one and /dev/urandom the insecure one?
gollark: In theory, the entropy pool thing it uses is such that you shouldn't be able to REDUCE its randomness by feeding in data. Without having access to its internal state or something.
gollark: ```osmarks@fenrir /t/d/wiki (master)> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/random```muahahahaha.
gollark: Time to BREAK THE SYSTEM by feeding it DETERMINISTIC data!
