Discussion | Deinandra fasciculata occurs in southwestern California, especially on immediate coast, and on southern Central Coast and in the western Outer South Coast Ranges. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Deinandra lobbii occurs on hills and flats of the northern South Coast Ranges and San Francisco Bay area and is disjunct in northeastern California, where putatively introduced. Populations in northeastern California occur at higher elevations than elsewhere (1000–1800 m). (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
