The Bees and Butterflies seem very fond of it!: http://wolfbat359.com/idplease.html The easy part is the common name, Chamisa, or Rubber Rabbitbrush. There is lots of fun going on with classification right now, I will give you the current USDA name, which is Ericameria nauseosa. The subspecies and variety depend on a couple of factors, this one is probably ssp. nauseosa, could be ssp. consimilis though. Sean Roland P. Roberts' dissertation "Phylogeny of Ericameria, Chrysothamnus and Related Genera (Asteraceae: Astereae) Based on Nuclear Ribosomal DNA Sequence Data" (available online) has Ericameria nauseosa deep in the Ericameria clade, so I guess that's where it's going to end up. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |

Have tried to grow similar stuff they called Rabbitbrush from commercial places! Probably not the same plant; but have had no luck with it; and I like to attract the Bees and Butter flies! Usually plant Cleome serrulata every year which does a great job and is the last plant left in the garden blooming until the first big frost! But this plant looks great also! I had not realized till this year, but the Cleome serrulata seems to attract a lot of moths at night! I assume they are moths as I did not think butterf;ies were active at night; and the ones on the Cleome serrulata at night are drab like a moth! |
