Petey talks about the beautiful desert shrub Simmondsia chinensis, better known as jojoba.
It took a visiting niece to get Petey back out into the Sonoran desert and remind him that the desert is beautiful.
Petey wanders into the nearby hills and comes across a couple different species of native bunch grasses and tells us all about them.
