Eriogonum collinum is infrequent to locally common in the Lahontan Basin region of the Intermountain West in northeastern California (Lassen and Modoc counties), south-central Oregon (Lake County), and northwestern Nevada (Douglas, Humboldt, Lyon, Pershing, Storey, and Washoe counties). (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Eriogonum congdonii is an elegant subshrub restricted to the mountains of central-northern California (southern Siskiyou and northern Trinity counties). It is worthy of serious consideration as a garden introduction even though it typically occurs on nearly raw, greenish-black serpentine outcrops. In that setting, the olive green leaf blades, the bright green and nearly glabrous flowering stems and inflorescence branches, and the dense clusters of rich sulphur-yellow flowers make a beautiful contrast.
