The Furze (In Hebrew: Rotem)
A deserts plant that grows in Israel. Its deep derived roots help it to pump water from the desert and stop the wandering sand. Its flowers are white, aromatic and full of nectar. The furze or rotem grows in lots of places: along the highways, along the Mediterranean coast between Tel-Aviv and Haifa, in the northern parts of Israel as well as along the highway in the Negev desert. It looks as if a magic hand has spread a white blanket.
