Varieties 2 (2 in the flora). Eriogonum baileyi is closely related to and sometimes difficult to distinguish from E. elegans of the Inner Coast Ranges of California, and E. brachyanthum along the eastern edge of the Sierra Nevada, especially in Inyo and Mono counties. However, these species do not seem to intergrade. Eriogonum baileyi often grows with other annual wild buckwheats (especially E. ampullaceum and E. brachyanthum), so care must be taken not to make mixed collections. The Kawaiisu people of southern California pounded the seeds into a meal, which they ate dry, and also mixed with water to serve as a beverage (M. L. Zigmond 1981).

Eriogonum pendulum is a rare to locally uncommon shrub in the O’Brien-Waldo area of Josephine County, Oregon, and more common in the Siskiyou Mountains of Del Norte County, California, as far south as Gasquet. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
