Eriogonum diclinum is found infrequently in the Siskiyou and Trinity mountains of northwest California (Siskiyou and Trinity counties) and southwest Oregon (Jackson and Josephine counties). The species approaches E. incanum in aspect, and reports of that species in Oregon were based on staminate specimens of E. diclinum.

Of conservation concern. Eriogonum butterworthianum is a rare and localized species that grows in the cracks of Vaqueros sandstone near The Indians in the Santa Lucia Range of Monterey County. It is considered a “sensitive species” by the U.S. Forest Service. Its relationship to other species in subg. Eucycla is uncertain. Butterworth’s wild buckwheat would make an elegant addition to the garden. Given its rarity, great care must be taken even in collecting seeds.
