	Fouquieria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fouquieria is a genus of 11 species of desert plants, the sole genus in the family Fouquieriaceae.
		Fouquieria diguetii is host to the Peacock mite Tuckerella eloisae.
		They do not have a particularly close resemblance to any other sort of plants; genetic evidence has shown that they belong in the Ericales.

	Fouquieriaceae (ocotillo family)
		The fouquierias have a curious parallel with the Didiereaceae.
		When explorer Godfrey Sykes encountered the plants growing on the desolate Sonoran coast in 1922, he was reminded of Carroll’s story and dubbed them boojums.

		Plants of F. columnaris can reach heights up to 65 ft tall with numerous short side branches and a massive tapering, white barked trunk up to 1 ½ ft in diameter near the base.
