- The pungently scented Yarrow has finely divided fern-like leaves and a flat-topped cluster of many small white flowers. The species grows in a diversity of habitats and flowers from June through September. The densely hairy plants average between ten and twenty inches tall with leaves one to four inches long.
Lomatium dissectum is the most robust of the desert parsley. This fern-leafed variety is highly variable and has a wide range. It grows as much as four feet tall, making it the tallest of the Lomatium. The leaves, mostly basal, are large and divided into many segments. Multiple umbels develop on a long leafless stalk with early spring flowers that vary in color from deep purple (nearly black) to pale yellow. It most frequently grows in rocky soils, particularly on talus slopes. It can often found growing among Arrowleaf Balsamroot.
The leaves of Oregon Grape are a holly-like ground cover and usually have seven to nine leaflets in pairs along a thin, tough stem. They are rough-textured, wavy-margined with prickly edges, and darker green above than below. Some of the evergreen leaves turn red in the autumn. The blossoms are tight yellow clusters and bloom in early spring. Both the stems and roots have a bright yellow pith and very bitter taste due to the presence of the alkaloid berberine. The flowers mature into tart bluish berries with a white “bloom.” Fruit matures in early summer.
