Discover the wonders of Simmondsia chinensis, the versatile desert plant native to Southwestern North America. Also known as Jojoba, this evergreen shrub boasts a broad, dense crown, thick waxy glaucous gray-green leaves and small greenish-yellow flowers. Each plant is either male or female, with hermaphrodites being extremely rare. Its hard oval seeds contain an oil content of around 54%, which is extracted to produce jojoba oil. Jojoba foliage provides year-round food for many animals, making it an essential source of nutrition for deer, bighorn sheep, livestock and more. The nuts are also a popular food for squirrels, rabbits, rodents, and larger birds. Discover the wonders of this fascinating plant today.
