Please help me identify this plant. It is growing in the desert in Tucson Az in back of my home. Lives on rain fall only. The leaves are rounded unlike the jagged leaves of Esperanza plants. Please email me at Russianblue@cox.net. Thank you.

Fascinating. I was just reading about this plant in my desert wildflowers book. Even though I have not smoked a cigarette since 1996, I would be curious as to the quality of the smoke.
