Eriogonum umbellatum var. subaridum var. subaridum
Subaridum Sulphur Flower is a compact, mat-forming perennial native to the arid slopes of the southwestern United States, ideal for rock gardens, dry borders, and native plant landscapes. It thrives in lean, sharply drained soils and full sun; avoid rich or consistently moist soil, which can cause root rot. Once established, this resilient wildflower needs virtually no supplemental water and produces clusters of bright yellow blooms beloved by native bees and butterflies.
