Varieties 2 (2 in the flora). Eriogonum elatum is widely distributed but rather scattered throughout its range. The plants are occasionally seen in the garden. Inflorescence branches were chewed or made into an infusion and taken as a physic by some Native American people (D. E. Moerman 1986).

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).
