Euphorbia (Chamaescye) geyeri

Okie Dokie. Countin' the two we have on, that makes twenty, Ray. You have one of yers on, right?

Yepper. One of the new uns. Surely Crumby, we verily have more undears twixt the twain of us than many others even among the mightiest of the Druidry ever.

Yep, we probably do fer sure, maybe. But now let's see if we caint avoid wearin' each others in the absence of mutual permission. No what I mean, Ray?

No need to get high and mighty avec moi, there Crumby. Likely it is that many have seen ye promenadin' around the Cow Barn in mine too.

Be that as it may Ray, now we have plenty and we need to put marks upon them all so we can discern whose is whose and that way we will only need to borrow, one from t'other, followed hard upon polite request or emergencies dire or semi-dire. What mark would ye prefer?

Shrew and Ox.

All righty then, that's two marks. Why do ye figure ye rate two marks on yer undears Ray?

Shrew and Ox er totems, fer me. I can nae slight the one nor favor t'other.

All righty then. That's reasonable. Here's yer pile. Better count em to make sure ye have nine.

Hold it fer the nonce Crumby. Do we have oat marks also? Perhaps I should include oats so that they also will not be offended, with me.

Yepper Ray. We got oat marks too. So ye'll have three marks on yer undears. Caint be too careful.

What are yer marks Crumby?

Well Ray, seein' as how yers will be well marked, I caint really see how I'll need any marks on mine.

No way dude! If they aint branded they be free range.

Yikes! All righty then. Hmmmmmm. I pick wild canary, spurge, monkey and pigweed. That's four for the Crumby Ovate. Now let's stamp on the all the marks and then get on to this evenin's spurge splurge.

Somewhat and many la-nees later.

All righty then. Those undears are now indelibly marked with marks of the flora, yea verily as well as the fauna. Shall we spurge?

We shall indeed, spurge. Tonight's spurge is none other than E. geyeri, waftin' fer across both space and time from the Carrizo Sands of Bexar County, circa 1997. And a lovely little spurge this one is. We have here depicted nearby once we get it loaded up, the little smooth as a baby's lala seeds, in addition to flowers, leaves and much other of the many features of this spurge, hereabouts somewhere indicated.
