Comments: Small bushes thick with bright green, round stems bear very small yellow cones in the spring. Should need no additional water once established. The dried stems make a tasty, refreshing tea. There is a lot of Ephedra along some of the trails in Palo Duro Canyon. Look for it next time you are hiking.
