Coyote Brush has both male and female flowers, but they grow on different bushes. The female flowers are white and fluffy, and look like little brushes. The male flowers are white and yellow.

| Photos 21-34 are bushes with male flowers. |
| Coyote Brush leaves usually remain green. It's likely that these branches were broken off from the main plant. |
| Late in the fall of 2018, many of the Coyote Brush bushes on the south side of Tilley Hill were turning brown. I'm not sure if it's due to extra-dry conditions or something else. |
