Larrea tridentata
Larrea tridentata, called creosote bush and greasewood as a plant, chaparral as a medicinal herb, and gobernadora (Spanish for "governess") in Mexico, due to its ability to secure more water by inhibiting the growth of nearby plants. In Sonora, it is more commonly called hediondilla; Spanish hediondo = "smelly".
It is a flowering plant in the family Zygophyllaceae. The specific name tridentata refers to its three-toothed leaves.
