The plants form bushes which later usually overhanging or spreading and are rarely tree-shaped. Stems have 3 to 5 ribs, typically thin, with stout spines. The large, white, funnel-shaped flowers are night-opening, 12–25 cm (4.7–9.8 in) long and 6–12 cm (2.4–4.7 in) in diameter and open at night. The little scaly pericarpel and the long ...
The name "burning bush" derives from the volatile oils produced by the plant, which can catch fire readily in hot weather, [6] leading to comparisons with the burning bush of the Bible, including the suggestion that this is the plant involved there.
Vigorous growth is also a hallmark of many non-native and invasive plants, and burning bush also checks this box and can grow to 30-feet tall and wide when it is not regularly pruned.
However, the way these plants have evolved to display these characteristics differs from traditional defense mechanisms, as Datura stramonium uses a combination of both resistance and growth simultaneously to address these issues, instead of relying exclusively on one or the other. It has been hypothesized that this is due to the fact that ...
Bursaria spinosa has a variable habit, and can grow anywhere from 1 to 12 m high. The dark grey bark is furrowed. The smooth branches are sometimes armed with thorns, and the leaves are arranged alternately along the stems or clustered around the nodes and have a pine-like fragrance when bruised.
