Great photos as always!!
Like the foliage but I'm a sucker for good gray tufts and mounds. The airy soft yellow flowers are also nice. Is it deciduous when winter sets in? It has a look about it, that is very similar to E. ochrocephalum from out here which is deciduous except for the new branch tips.
Late summer and fall bloomers are always welcome in my garden. I have a dramatic slowing down of the show by the end of July and am always looking for plants that can extent the blooming season.

It sheds its leaves in the winter except for the tips of the branches. Old specimens look quite spectacular with their gnarled exposed trunks.
Thanks for the comments.

I found another photo of E. brevicaule var. canum showing its growth form. It's easy to see how it was once allied with E. pauciflorum. This photo was taken mid-July and the plants were just starting to bloom.
