Plants

It's a symbol of Arizona - but it doesn't grow everywhere. Here's why.

As the holiday season creeps up on us, you'll likely be trying to make your family get-togethers and Christmas celebrations feel like a movie. Unfortunately, no matter how hard you try, you're more likely to end up with something more akin to National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation than It's A Wonderful Life.

As you walks down city streets or lonely dirt roads across Arizona, you're likely to find Palm Trees growing on every corner. These tall, shady trees have taken over the Arizona landscape and help give this state the look and feel it has now.

There's one part of Arizona that's super easy to find whether you have GPS or not. All you have to do is keep an eye out for these things - luckily they're huge.

It smells like either death, rotting fish, sweaty socks or a combination of all three.

You might have some of this around your family and not even know it.

Arizona's natural wonders help us to reconnect with out landscape, but one plant wants us out.
