A plant which aapa Ita food from
another plant grows 20 times as large
the host plant, yet does not in any
way harm but rather benefits the host,
grows In the desert of southeastern
California.
Adding further to Its peculiarities is
the fact that it makes an excellent
food for man, yet grows in an area
where only 2 to 6 Inches of rain fall
annually.
The plant Is the Ammobroma, or
sand root, and was first seen in 1928
by white men, so far as the record
is concerned. It was found, however,
that the Papago Indians were familiar
with the plant, and for generations
had been digging the roots, which ex
tend 8 to S feet Into the ground. In
spite of the depth to which the roots
extend, they are easily drawn up out
of the soil.
It has little or nothing in the way of
leaves, and the only flower is a sand-
colored blossom, which lies close to
the ground. The stalks of the plant
are much like asparagus, and are both
appetizing and nourishing.
Lacking green coloring matter, the
plants are unable to manufacture their
own food, and obtain It by attaching
themselves to other plants. In return
the root system of the Ammobroma
supplies the host plant with the vital,
Ufe-glvlng water.
