Erythranthe arenicola
Erythranthe arenicola is a rare California native monkeyflower that prefers moist, sandy soils in partially shaded streamside or riparian settings. Keep the soil consistently moist and avoid letting it dry out completely, as this species is adapted to wet habitats. Its cheerful yellow blooms attract hummingbirds and pollinators, making it an excellent addition to a native or water garden.
