Anisacanthus quadrifidus
Immature seedpods.
Xeric yard.
When the pods dry they explode and fling their seed. I put in three plants three years ago. I now have dozens of plants, several fairly large, and have dug or pulled as many. They seem to thrive in the dry, rocky soil. The hummingbirds and butterflies love them.
