Eriogonum dasyanthemum is common to locally abundant in the North Coast Ranges (Colusa, Glenn, Lake, Mendocino, Napa, Shasta, Solano, Tehama, Trinity, and Yolo counties). A single collection apparently made at Mendocino along the Pacific Ocean in Mendocino County (Brown 942, Aug 1898, B, BKL, F, GH, IND, MO, RM) requires modern confirmation. Jepson 8962 (JEPS, UTC) supposedly was gathered “above Venado” in Colusa County, but Venado is a small town in Sonoma County. The densely pubescent flowers easily distinguish this species.

Eriogonum scopulorum is known only from a few scattered locations in the Wallowa Mountains of Wallowa County, Oregon, and in Adams and Idaho counties, Idaho. While rare, and of concern to the U.S. Forest Service, it is not considered a “sensitive species,” given its remote location and lack of any immediate threat. The cliff wild buckwheat is worthy of cultivation as a rock garden plant. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
