The Chelone Mugo is a very scarce, tall plant and can be found anywhere near rivers and lakes. It blooms in late winter. It has large, blunt tipped leaves, which are usually blue-green. It also grows tiny flowers, which can be light red, light gold and blue. These plants grow in small groups, but it's easy, even without experience, to control and maintain their growth. They can be used to create a poison. As a defense mechanism the Chelone Mugo grows thick thorns. They rely on winds to carry their seeds away to reproduce. Once pollinated, they grow fairly large, delicious fruits.
