What Plant Is This?
-
Looks like a young mimosa tree,but the flower is wrong for that
-
I had looked at Mimosa - not sure about the maturity of the flowers, but the seed pods looked wrong. The areas where I saw them (probably thousands of them) were very wet.

Here is a sensitive plant,looks similar as well,the leaves close up when you touch them,

I think that's a tamarind (Tamarindus Indica, L.) with immature pods. (?) Purely a guess. I've never seen it before.

The next time I'm down in that area I'll have to spend more time looking. It was just so striking as to how many there were. The were small, immature plants (maybe trees) with large pods hanging down like Christmas ornaments.

crash that plant is called Palo- verda the seed is poisonous i use them for my spear heads and smash them and toss them into water to fish with. simular to the tamarind (which is source of vitamin C) google polo-verda tree desert USA. genera,species...
cercidium microphyllium. a common roadside plant, that is unfortunately inedible

That's odd. I found some yesterday down here in the south. it was in a very wet area and I failed to identify them also. didnt' have a chance to get the pics up yet, but now I dont need to anyway. Those are exactly what i came across. Polo-Verda. I will definately be looking that up. thanks a million erunk. Good to know it is poisonous. I was considering their edibility because the beans inside look almost just like immature butterbeans.
Thanks guys!!

the flower of the palo-verda make a very good water based dye for use with leather or cotton textiles. the dried stemy leaves make a good second stage fire starting material.
thanks for posting this important plant crashdive123!

I'd say Mimosa..too! I have a dozen mature trees and they are very invasive. A young Mimosa is what I bet it is.
