Frozen Thimbleweed

The Desmodium Edulis is a very common, giant plant and can be found in any cold region. It blooms once a year, for 1 week. It has wide, barb shaped leaves, which are usually green and white. It also grows decent sized flowers, which can be yellow, silver and light purple. These plants grow in large groups, but it's complicated to control and maintain their growth. They can be used as an anesthetic. As a defense mechanism the Desmodium Edulis grows tiny thorns. They rely on self pollination to reproduce. Once pollinated, they grow small, inedible fruits.
