Description ²

This species, which is typically less than 10 inches tall, has a flower borne in the axil of each upper opposite leaf. Although these flowers are borne on opposite sides of the stem, a twisting of their pedicels brings them to a position side by side in pairs. A close look at the base of each flower will reveal a small two-lipped calyx resembling an old-fashioned Quaker bonnet.

Distribution (circa 2001) ³

Found in dry locations such as chaparral or oak woodlands, where they are especially common after a fire. Widespread from 200–1000m throughout the state, except for the Great Basin and California deserts.
