The
Gum Plant Scientific name: Grindelia paludosa Size: its flower's rays are 1 inch long. The leaves on the plant are 4 inches long and the plant is about 2 to 4 feet tall. The gum plant blooms in the spring with yellow flowers. The "gum" in the gum plant was used as medicine by the Suisuni Indians. Small masses of bubbles often seen on this plant actually hide spittle bugs. by Stephanie
