no idea, my friend took the picture and sent it to me

Ruben, without knowing something (anything!) about this plant, like where it is growing, if it’s a tree, a tiny shrublet or how big it is, it’s virtually impossible to give you even an idea of where to start.

It’s so cool, though; it looks like prehistoric flying dinosaurs or something. I’m going to assume that these are flowers, but it’s hard to tell if they’re just opening up, or if these are seed pods.

If you could give me some more information to go on, I can search for it a bit more, but I’m stumped (no pun intended!)

Sorry I couldn’t be of more help,
Jacki

It is a succulent, big one, looks like a collection of gray/green ropes
the photo was taken in Kibbutz Nirim, situated in the north of the Negev Desert.
It is in private garden, so I dont think is local or silvester,and of course it is not the barrel-cactus oi the middle.

Gotcha! The first pictures you sent looked to me like a tree, so I was really floundering!

This guy looks like some kind of Salicornia in plant growth, but the flowers are not even close, so I’ll keep looking. Something with flowers that weird should be easy to find!
