From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eriophyllum confertiflorum is a flowering plant in the daisy family which is known by the common name golden yarrow or yellow yarrow. This is a highly variable plant which is generally a small shrub. It is native to California and Baja California, and its range may extend into Arizona. It can be found in a number of plant communities and habitats. The plant grows in large clumps or stands of many erect stems often exceeding half a meter in height. It has greenish to gray-green stems and foliage, the leaves sharply lobed and divided. The top of each stem is occupied by an inflorescence of up to 30 flower heads, each bright golden yellow head with a large center of disc florets and usually a fringe of rounded to oval ray florets. The fruit is an achene with a very short pappus.
