Description

Silvery-woolly perennial herb, often with several stems, growing to 60 cm tall.[2] Leaves usually opposite, sometimes alternate,[2] entire to pinnatifid, to 8 cm long.[3] Pseudanthia radiate, usually solitary and long-pedunculate;[4] phyllaries broad, involucre 6-12 mm tall;[3] ray florets 4-13, yellow and fertile; disk florets yellow, fertile; pappus of chaffy scales;[5] style branched, stigmas 2,[5] ovary inferior, becoming slender, 4-angled achenes.[3]

Bloom Period

May-August[3]

Distribution

Common on both sides of the Cascades from British Columbia to California, east to Montana and Utah.[3]

Habitat

Low to high elevation open areas that are dry and often rocky.[3]

Uses

Wildlife: Butterflies - attracts orange sulfur red admiral comma and skipper butterflies.[6]

First Nations: Miwok use as a poultice for treating aches; Skagit use of leaves to prevent chapping; Chehalis use of dried leaves as a love medicine.[7]

Propagation

May be collected as: Seeds. Collect whole fruiting heads when fruit is completely ripe from mid-summer to early fall. Collection restrictions or guidelines: None: common and unlisted Seed germination: Good germination after cold storage and fall planting in cold frames Seed life: Many years when well stored Recommended seed storage conditions: Dry down to 5-8% moisture. Store cold at 0-2°C. Propagation recommendations: Good germination from seed. Soil or medium requirements: Recommendation 1:1:1:2 sand:pumice:peat moss:fir bark Installation form: Direct seeding into site may reduce seedling dormancy or loss. Recommended planting density: Dense and patchy Care requirements after installed: Good drought tolerance, no after care with appropriate planting time. Normal rate of growth or spread; lifespan: Rapidly occupies a restoration site. Long-lived.[8]
