Description

Not exactly the best representative of its Species, let alone its Genus, none-the-less, the inclusion of this particular tumbleweed would make a fine addition to anyone's tumbleweed collection.  Just for its uniqueness if nothing else.  Of course unlike most tumbleweed, this one might object to being collected, VIGOUROUSLY.

Assess

The decaying tumbleweed is medium in size and about three feet high in its current state.
