Stemodia Durantifolia
''Stemodia durantifolia'' is a species of flowering plant in the plantain family commonly known as the whitewoolly twintip and purple stemodia. ''Stemodia durantifolia'' is native to the Americas, including Chile, Mexico, Texas, and the deserts of California and Arizona, and is often found in riparian habitats, preferring wet sand and rocks. It is a perennial herb producing a hairy, glandular, erect stem tall, with the toothed lance-shaped leaves found in pairs or triplets, attached to the stem with clasping bases. The inflorescence is a raceme of violet flowers, with each corolla held in a calyx of hairy, pointed sepals, and can often be found in bloom year-round. Although globally at low risk of extinction, ''Stemodia durantifolia'' is imperiled in California due to its rarity and threats from development. Description Characteristics ''Stemodia durantifolia'' is a perennial herbaceous plant to tall, with glandular- hairy herbage. The branching habit is both basal and a ...
