~~Devils Claws~~
Also known as the Unicorn Plant
Unique Flower and Pod
This Auction is for 12 small to medium size, Odd shaped Devils Claw pods.
These are sized about 2 1/2″- 3 1/2″  across
A nice assortment for crafts!
colors vary from light to dark
Each one is unique!  You will receive a variety.  The ones pictured
here are what you will receive.  It’s hard to get them all in a photo
without being bunched up.  If they are spread out too far, it will lose
details. So I provide a variety of pictures.   I assure you it will be a
nice variety of size, color, and shapes!!! 🙂  I work with crafts
myself and understand the importance of quality materials, and will only
send the best!
The colors range from Black,
Tan, to Grey… Depending on how long they were in the sun and bleached
naturally!  I only use warm water and a little dish soap to clean them
so as to not alter their color!
I grow these on my property.  In no way was the desert harmed!
Organic grown
The
plant is a big interesting bush with sticky leaves, and a beautiful pink
tubular flower!  The pods start out as a green velvety pod in the shape
of a horn.  That is how the plant became nic named the “unicorn Plant” 
when it ripens, it splits open into the two curved horns or “claws”. 
One plant can produce up to 50 pods!
The
seed pods attach themselves to the feet and legs of animals.  Anyone who
lives where these grow knows exactly what I’m talking about.  Its hard
to walk the desert without at least one getting stuck to your shoe! 🙂
The fresh green pods were used as food by the Native American Indians, and still are today.  They are cooked similar to Okra.
They are also know for being used in baskets made by the Tribes of the Southwest Native Americans!
Often used in the bottoms for strength!  Also used in designs because of the amazing black color from when they first open.
They were soaked and then striped lengthwise.
Someday I would like to try this myself.  🙂
They are also used in Wreaths, Dried Flower Arrangements, Gourds and Dream Catchers.  I make a Reindeer ornament from them.
