 By about 1960, it was noted that the most common herbaceous plant was "Stachytarpheta indica", while the introduced Indian Blanketflower ("Gaillardia pulchella") had established itself widely.Sisal ("Agave sisalana"), Chinese tiolet ("Asystasia gangetica"), Papaya ("Carica papaya"), Jimsonweed ("Datura stramonium") and bananas ("Musa") were found around the mining camp.Whether any of these has survived is not known, though the dropseed grass "Sporobolus virginicus" which was found in abundance on the dunes probably has.
