Leaves on the Anderson thornbush are flat, yet thick and succulent-like and shed during periods of drought.
Lavender-colored flowers bloom in Spring, followed by bright red fleshy fruits that serve as an important source of food and hydration for birds. It grows in sandy, gravelly washes and on slopes or mesas.
