he travels by prostrating himself all the way: I have no idea how far he's travelled, though he looked as though he'd done many miles already...
Baccharis pilularis ssp. pilularis, PROSTRATE COYOTE BRUSH. This is the only low-growing coyote brush on the preserve. Has flexible stems that form a mat. South-facing bank of Road E above intersection with trail 14, Sector 31 B1. T
Introduced cool-season biennial or short lived perennial legume; stems are semi prostrate to erect, thick and 30-160 cm tall. Leaves are pinnate with 7-15 pairs of round to oval leaflets and succulent; upper surface is hairless and lower surface is hairy. Flowerheads are racemes with up to 35 pea-like flowers; petals are red to crimson. Pods are 3-8-segmented and have a rough short thorny surface. A native of the Mediterranean region, it is sown as a short-term ley legume in cropping systems. It produces large quantities of high quality feed in winter and spring. It can be grazed or cut for hay (less leaf drop than lucerne, but thicker stems are more difficult to dry) or silage, but is not suitable for use in grass/legume pastures.
Prostrate knotweed (Polygonum aviculare), Buckwheat family (Polygonaceae).
Elbow Fork Trail, Millcreek Canyon, Utah; elevation 2056 m.
Introduced, cool-season annual, stemless or short-stemmed herb to 30 cm tall. Leaves form a prostrate rosette to 50 cm in diameter; they are spear shaped, serrated, deeply lobed; upper surface hairless to hairy; lower surface white felted. Flowerheads occur on unbranched peduncles. Ray florets are yellow, ligulate and sterile; disc florets are dark, tubular and bisexual. Germinates in autumn/winter; flowers in spring. A native of South Africa, it is strongly competitive weed of crops, pastures, lawns and disturbed areas (e.g. roadsides). Prefers lighter textured soils of reasonable fertility and where there is a lack of competition. Grazed by stock, but is of lower value than many good pasture species. Can cause nitrate poisoning in sheep and cattle on high fertility soils; taints milk; causes allergic skin reaction in horses and donkeys. Best managed using a number of methods: competition, grazing, mechanical, herbicides. Maintain dense, vigorous pastures and minimise soil disturbance. Needs to be controlled in year prior to sowing pastures; control is easiest at the seedling stage. Combined knockdown herbicides prior to sowing, selective post-sowing herbicides or manuring of crops and pastures can be highly effective for control.
Introduced, cool-season, annual, erect or ± prostrate herb, 10-20 cm tall. Leaves are narrow-lanceolate to narrow-obovate to spathulate, 1.5–3 cm long, 2–8 mm wide, apex obtuse to acute and mucronate, base slightly stem-clasping, both surfaces white-tomentose. Heads woolly at the base, 1.5–3 mm diam., in axillary clusters forming a leafy panicle, subtended by several ovate to obovate hyaline bracts. Flowers in spring and early summer. Grows in disturbed areas.

Introduced warm-season perennial prostrate herb forming dense mats up to 1.6 m across. Stems are thick and woody. Grey, hairy, slightly succulent, roughly spoon-shaped leaves are alternately arranged along the stems and 4–25 mm long. Flowers are tiny white to pink, found in the leaf axils and have 5 "petals" and 10 stamens. Fruit are small (2-3 mm across) cup-shaped capsules containing a small number of seeds. Flowering is from spring through to autumn. Often forms dense mats on roadsides, lawns, wasteland, and other disturbed areas. Tolerates drought and soil salinity. Most commonly found in areas receiving summer rainfall, on loam soils. Does not persist in areas that are regularly and frequently grazed. Successfully planted to stabilize mine tailing dumps, but has spread from there to become a common weed.

This is a rare prostrate Acacia. I forgotten what the name is, but when I go back to the bloke I got it from with the see I hope to optain from my plant, ill make sure I get it. :)

The native annual prostrate forb, Tiquilia nuttallii, is most abundant in sandy swales. Stem branching is dichotomous, the leaf venation is furrowed on the upper surface, and the leaf hairs are coarse, as is characteristic of many borage species. This site lies in the Wyoming big sagebrush steppe of the Idaho National Laboratory, east of Lincoln Blvd and south of Shell Road, Butte County, Idaho.
Native, warm season, perennial, succulent, hairless prostrate herb. Stems are to 1 m long and root at the nodes. Leaves are linear to lanceolate or oblanceolate, to 7 cm long and 5–10 mm wide. Flowers are solitary, axillary and pedicellate. Perianth is tubular, pink, 5-lobed, with a dorsal fleshy mucro behind each apex. Stamens are numerous. Grows on sand or mud in subtropical to tropical coasts.

They made me think you were a prostrate living in New York. Can you see how much i love you, it's never been about what you look like or what you have done but yes i was scared for your everyday thinking you were being raped and abused, I was hurting with extreme emotional pain every day. I love you forever Gabby.
Introduced, cool-season, annual, low-growing, hairless legume, with prostrate to ascending stems. Leaves have 3 leaflets, each oblong to ovate and 8-16 mm long. The central leaflet has a distinctly longer stalk than the lateral ones. Flowerheads are dense, rounded clusters (8-15 mm long) of 20-40 yellow, inflated, pea-like flowers. Pods are oblong and 1-2 mm long. Flowering is in spring. A native of Europe, the Mediterranean and West Asia, it is found in pastures, woodlands and roadsides; although more common on roadsides than in grazed pastures. Usually found on coarse-textured low-fertility soils where groundcover is reduced. Generally only found at low densities in pastures. Provides good quality feed, but it is not very productive.

Rachel wants me to photoshop a thong on this thing. We're not sure where the rest of the car went, though.
Introduced, warm-season, annual, prostrate to ascending, sparsely hairy herb to 60 cm tall. White latex appears where the plant is broken. Leaves are 0.6-3 cm long, opposite, and have 3 strong longitudinal veins, with reddish brown markings mostly along the central vein. Flowerheads are loose clusters of tiny “flowers”, with white or pink petal-like appendages. Flowering is in summer. A native of the Americas, it is found in dry disturbed; often on sandy soils. A minor weed of roadsides and waste areas. Little other information is available about its importance or management in NSW.

While there are lots of 'pea' Fabeaceae in flower at the moment this was one I had not seen. Very small on a completely prostrate shrub about a metre across.
