Herbs villous and glandular puberulent, especially in inflo­rescence. Stems usually 15–60 cm. Leaves not especially clustered toward base, mostly evenly distributed, 1–6 × 0.6–2.2 cm; petiole 0.1–2.6 cm; blade narrowly lanceolate, narrowly ovate, or ovate to elliptic, margins coarsely serrulate to sinuate-toothed. Inflorescences ± open. Flowers: floral-tube 4–8 mm; petals white, 3.5–9 mm. Capsules slightly curved outward to contorted, 1.3–1.9 mm diam. near base. Seeds dimorphic.


Phenology: Flowering Jun–Aug.
Habitat: Sandy flats, steep loose slopes, sagebrush shrublands, Joshua tree and pinyon-juniper woodlands.
Elevation: 900–2400 m.

Distribution

Ariz., Calif., Idaho, Nev., Oreg., Wash.
