Buckwheat-California, Eriogonum fasciculatum var. foliolosum
This CA native forms a clump 2 to 4 feet high and a 4 foot spread. It can be sheared for a more formal look. Needle-like foliage is dark green on top, light green underneath, with pinkish white flower clusters from May through October. Excellent for erosion control on dry hillsides or as a hedgerow to support beneficial insects. California Buckwheats are tough and easy to grow, even in very dry conditions. Plant in a well draining sunny site. It shouldn’t need supplemental water after established, but it will tolerate occasional summer water better than most extremely drought tolerant California natives. A good source of nectar over many months in drier areas.
