The fuzzyfan split from its ancestor, the pioneerq quillprong in Dixon rocky and Dixon high Desert. Its three leaf/thorn clusters have become wider and flatter to catch mist and dew, along with the species itself doubling in size. This extra water gives it a considerable advantage and allows it to reproduce very quickly. It is common for entire hillsides and steep areas to be densely covered in colonies of fuzzyfans. Due to their increasingly efficient nitrogen-fixing roots (like its ancestor), thin areas and edges of colonies are often lush with other flora. This along with water droplets that collect on the fuzzyfans creates an oasis-like area in formerly barren, dry areas.
