Summary[edit]

Description

granite buckwheat, Eriogonum lobbii, Nevada, Carson Range, Sierra Nevada, Mount Rose, Bronco Creek - Truckee River watershed, elevation 3011 m (9880 ft).

The prostrate stems, shortly branched heads of white to reddish flowers, and rosettes of round silvery leaves immediately set this handsome species off from other buckwheats. It is characteristic of loose decomposed granite soils at middle to alpine elevations in the Sierra Nevada and Siskiyou Mountains of northern and eastern California and southwestern Oregon, and extends shortly eastward into some of the higher Great Basin mountain ranges along the western fringes of adjacent Nevada.
