Hymenoxys lemmonii is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family known by the common name Lemmon's rubberweed. It is native to the western United States in and around the Great Basin. This is a biennial or perennial herb with one or more branching stems growing erect to a maximum height near 50 centimeters. It produces straight, dark green leaves up to 9 centimeters long and divided into a number of narrow, pointed lobes. The foliage and stem may be hairless to quite woolly. The daisylike flower head is generally at least 1.5 centimeters wide, with a center of thick golden disc florets and a shaggy fringe of golden ray florets.
