Have been on the lookout for ‘dodder’ for several years now….. this year, after the mild Spring and higher moisture, I found many clumps scattered here and there. Exciting!
Here is a link for more info about dodder… if you are interested. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuscuta

that dodder looks a lot like the brush on the smoke bush
I can see that…. by the way I’ve clumped it in the photo. It’s actually long strands of yellow ‘fibers’….. looks a bit like crazy witches hair.
