Xerophyte by Linda Fuller Your zoological aspirations, bromeliad – cameldom, dromedaryship – extravagant, farcical gimmickry. How incredibly juvenile, kindergartenish: loving mammalian nomenclature over plantae qualification; ruminating, single-humped tobacco-tainted ungulate versus wisteria. 07/01/2010 Author's Note: Yet another Abecedarian. Per Wiki, "A xerophyte or xerophytic organism (xero meaning dry, phyte meaning plant) is a plant which is able to survive in an environment with little available water or moisture..." Bromeliads are xerophytes; wisteria is not a xerophyte, but I liked it better than Wittrockia or Werauhia (types of bromeliads).
