Twin Needle

The twin needle is a desert plant with succulent leaves that do not quite lie flat on the ground. Insects and small vertebrates looking to use the shade thus provided to spend the day discover the insideous nature of the plnat. The two rough-barked stalks are articulate, and work in tandem to stab the visitor, so that their blood can nourish the plant.
