Antique botanical lithograph of Ocotillo. Fouquieria splendens Engelmann from North American Wild Flowers by Mary Vaux Walcott, published by the Smithsonian Institute, 1925.

Fouquieria splendens is a plant indigenous to the Mojave Desert, Sonoran Desert, Chihuahuan Desert and Colorado Desert in the Southwestern United States, and northern Mexico. While semi-succulent and a desert plant, Ocotillo is more closely related to the tea plant and blueberries than to cactuses.
