Of conservation concern. Eriogonum arborescens is local and occasionally rare on Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa, and Anacapa islands in Santa Cruz and Ventura counties. The species is cultivated, and populations have become naturalized on the mainland from San Mateo County south to San Diego, in large part because of planting along highways. Every effort should be made to remove these naturalized populations from the mainland. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Of conservation concern. Eriogonum hirtellum is known only from a few scattered locations in the Klamath Mountains of Siskiyou County and just over the boundary in Del Norte County. It is considered to be “sensitive” by the Bureau of Land Management. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
