It's home to this species.

When artist/photographer saw her first llareta, she apparently did a little happy dance. As she writes in , "Every once in a while you see something so ludicrously beautiful that all you can do is laugh."

How do I type in a maximum eyeroll?

Needs a bullshit tag.

The headline makes it sound like something new and unusual. read the article and you find that it is just a common, if a bit weird looking, plant. They didn't "appear", they have been there all along in fairly great quantity.

I enjoyed the article, not the headline. Seems like a lie to me.

"Appear" is a poor choice for that headline, seeing as They've been there longer than the giant sequoias in California

There ought to be an Althouse tag for ludicrously misleading headlines!!
