The smallest form of E. heracleiodes. Soft grey green leaves on short rosettes. Large pale cream inflorescences. This form from Wenatchee Mtns in Chelan County Washington. Another Ratko collection. I grew these for myself, but I have a few extras I am willing to part with.

A distinct variety collected by Ron Ratko. Leaves are dark green on top, white underneath, in dense mats. Large inflorescences of cream to pale yellow poms. Ron reports it does well in a well-drained sunny position. We are looking forward to trialing it.

A very nice form of this California mountain native, collected in Tuolumne county. Dense silver cushions, much denser than usually found, and yellow poms. We are excited about trying this in our own gardens this year, as it looks very good. Grows to very high elevations, so should be cold hardy anywhere in the foothills.

My all time favorite Eriogonum. Tight domes of small silver leaves. Flowers are yellow, fading to red, chrome. No dryland garden is complete without this. This is a very dense silvery form from the East side of the Sierras.
