I have no idea whbat this is, but it has been growing though the Winter at the entrance of the golden oldie home where Mr. Swiss now lives. It is not a wig, but is alive and has even grown during the past months.

Retired and Enjoying Every Minute of It
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.

It looks like the Spanish Moss that grows in our trees here in Florida. We’ll await the pro, though. Tony, where are you?!

I have NO idea what it is either! It almost looks like a Leucophyta brownii, as Eklastic suggests, but that species should not survive through winter there. Was it outside the entire time, or did it live in a sheltered situation earlier, and then get moved outside? Recent frost damage of formerly healthy foliage might explain its unfamiliar appearance.

It reminds me of a “tumbleweed”, but a large number of different species and genus’ produce structures like that so I have no idea as to which it might be.

I did a photo search and I am coming up with “calocephalus brownii” with the German name “Stacheldraht” (very appropriate I think). Another Latin name I found was “leucophyta brownii”. The English Wikipedia has more information about it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucophyta

It‘s definitely not that one.
I always buy them once an year – they need practically no water, are very sturdy and grow normally very little. That plant is a winner! Just last week I saw them in our local shop and I wondered for myself: Should I take a photo of its name – but didn‘t… ‚cause: Who would ever be interested in finding out 😉

Okay, but there are many different varieties. But obviously you have seen the “thing” in person, that’s different.

I am not sure if it actually has flowers, but it is a good plant for the colder season.
