Eriogonum umbellatum var. devestivum var. devestivum
This Pacific Northwest native sulfur buckwheat variety is native to Idaho, Oregon, and Washington and thrives in open, sunny to partly shaded sites with coarse, well-drained soils. Once established, it is highly self-sufficient, requiring only occasional deep watering during prolonged dry spells. A wonderful addition to native habitat restorations or pollinator gardens in the inland Pacific Northwest.
