Eriogonum nudum - soft yellow form

This seed strain of the naked buckwheat hails from a particularly robust population found in blue oak savanna, in the foothills of Tehama County. It has soft, buttery-yellow inflorescences, rather than the more common white or soft pink flowered forms. 2'-3’ tall, chunky stems topped with soft yellow, pom-pom shaped flower clusters emerge from a low, narrow, evergreen rosette of rounded leaves from May-August. Provide full-sun, good soil drainage, and little to no water once established. Native bees and butterflies enjoy the flowers. Great for rock gardens. Drought-tolerant.
