Redstem ceanothus is a common shrub in the open dry montane understory at the north end of the Cabinet Mountains, west of Libby, Lincoln County, Montana. Broad deciduous leaves with a main tridentate leaf venation distinguish this species from other Ceanothus. Common in Montana only in the northwestern-most counties.

Grand Redstem (Ammannia robusta) or Valley Redstem (A. coccinea), Lake Overholser, Bethany, OK, 9/22/09.
I had changed the species to A. erecta after reading GUIMARÃES ET AL. Nomenclator botanicus for Acisanthera (Melastomataceae: Marcetia alliance) Brittonia 69(2): 231–240 (2017). However, Flora Mesoamerica does not accept A, erecta, so I changed the species back to A. quadrata. ==>>

Erodium cicutarium, also known as common stork's-bill,[2] redstem filaree, redstem stork's bill or pinweed,[citation needed] is a herbaceous annual – or in warm climates, biennial – member of the family Geraniaceae of flowering plants.
The long seed-pod, shaped like the bill of a stork, bursts open in a spiral when ripe, sending the seeds (which have long tails called awns) into the air.
It is native to Macaronesia, temperate Eurasia and north and northeast Africa, and was introduced to North America in the eighteenth century,[3] where it has since become naturalized, particularly in the deserts and arid grasslands of the southwestern United States.[4]
Description
Common stork's-bill is a perennial monoecious herb that typically grows in rosettes pressed flat to the ground, with a deep tap root that allows it to survive through the summer on dry soils. It can develop stems up to 60 cm long that are sometimes red and sometimes green, and may be erect or prostrate, and have simple or glandular hairs which become more abundant towards the top. Plants with glandular hairs are sticky, but those with simple hairs are much less so. It has no scent.
The leaves are arranged in a basal rosette at the beginning of the year, later occurring in opposite pairs along the stem. They are pinnate, almost twice-pinnate as each leaflet is deeply toothed or divided more than halfway to the midrib, and the whole leaf can vary in size from 2–20 cm long, either with a petiole or not. Like the stems, the leaves can be covered with glandular or simple hairs.[5]
The stems bear bright pink flowers which often have dark spots on the bases. The flowers are arranged in a loose cluster and have ten filaments – five of which are fertile – and five styles.[6] The leaves are pinnate to pinnate-pinnatifid, with hairy stems.[7] The long seed-pod, shaped like the bill of a stork, bursts open in a spiral when ripe, sending the seeds (which have long tails called awns) into the air.
Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve. These flowers depend on nature for their water. This has been a fairly good rain year so my friend and I braved the 2.5 hour drive to see the wildflowers.
