The Resurrection Plant

Resurrection plant is the name of several different plants that can be dried, but turn green when they are watered. The dried stems curl into a tight ball, but they spread out when the plant is put into water. A common plant of this type called rose of Jericho, belongs to the mustard family. It grows from seeds and is native to northern Africa and many regions of the Middle East. The mature plant loses its leaves, curls up like a ball with is seed pods inside, and blows across the land. Another resurrection plant, also called rose of Jericho, is an the selaginella family. It reproduces by means of microscopic cells called spores.
