Mojave Desert
The Mojave Desert is a desert that covers parts of California, Nevada, Arizona, and Nevada. It is home to Joshua Tree National Park and Death Valley National Park, where the world record highest temperature was recorded.
Vegetation
North American deserts have a wide variety of vegetation in the sandy plains. Some plants in the Mojave include California Dalia, Golden head, Silver Cholla and the Creosote Bush. These plants don’t actually need much water as most desert plants don’t either. Many plants support animals in this desert space.
