Ocotillo Cactus / Joshua Tree Nationalpark

The Ocotillo Cactus looks like a bunch of dead sticks for most of the year, but when it begins to rain the plant quickly develops small, green leaves and eventually bright red flowers in the spring or summer. After blooming, the ocotillo's leaves dry up and fall off and the cactus returns to its dead-looking state.
