INFORMATION PROVIDED WITH THE PHOTO
|
date of photo Jun 24, 2003
location
Near Bass Lake (Madera County, California, US)family
Onagraceae
plant community Growing in shade of lower montane mixed coniferous forestnotes Apologies for the relatively blurred image (low light!), but I wanted to post this because it's such a distinctive taxon. Formerly in its own monotypic genus, Heteroguara, this is the only Clarkia without the typically long, grooved, +/- cylindrical fruits. Instead it has shorter, asymmetrically bulged nut-like fruits. It also has relatively small flowers, while having relatively large leaves (not visible in this image, but visible in other CalPhotos posts). Overall, this is a unique and interesting species!photo category: Plant - annual/perennial
