Palo verde was designated the official state tree of Arizona in 1954. "Palo verde" is Spanish for "green stick." Blooming in the spring (beginning in late March and continuing until May), palo verde are beautiful trees found in the desert and the foothills of Arizona that add vibrant color to the desert. Palo Verde seeds were a food source for the Pima and Papago Indians of Arizona (the seeds were dried and ground in mortars to make a flour used for mush or cakes). #2d_tree #Face_me_tree #Palo_Verde #Photo_Tree #Tree
