#cryptantha

[chaparraljournal]

Common cryptantha (Cryptantha intermedia), a plant so similar to the unrelated popcorn flower (Plagiobothrys) that until recently I thought they were the same.

Both share very small white flowers with yellow throats and narrow leaves. The only obvious difference is that the cryotantha is taller.

Common cryptantha, a simple wildflower from California. When I first saw it I thought it was phacelia due to the curled flower stems and hairiness.
