in general, brittle bushes in the desert have deep roots to absorb as much water as possible (or is that cacti?)
anyway, they have tightly curled leaves that reduce moisture loss.
Leaf pubescence (leaf hairs) grow on brittle brush. These leaf hairs reduce the amount of light the plant is able to absorb, therefore limiting the rate of photosynthetic activity.

Brittle bush (Encelia farinosa) has adapted to desert conditions through several key features. Its thick, waxy leaves minimize water loss by reducing evaporation, while its deep root system allows it to access moisture from deeper soil layers. The plant also has a light-colored, reflective surface that helps reduce heat absorption, enabling it to withstand extreme temperatures. Additionally, brittle bush can quickly flower and produce seeds after rainfall, ensuring its reproduction in a variable environment.
