I found this near Ingram a few months back. The leaves were almost foam like, not much heavier than air. Pictured is what I believe to be a younger plant and a mature one. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2022/02/full-42624-336979-a9dc354c_0559_4601_a012_687cb663c213.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2022/02/full-42624-336980-99f6777f_d856_4b68_9784_3e2f2f55b2fd.jpeg)

It is a mullien. Great for when you accidentally leave the toilet paper at home!

I first saw it 30 years ago in Kendall County. I have now seen it in most of the Hill Country counties I've been in. Seen quite a lot of it in NW Gillespie.
