I found these eriogonum in Nevada, near Austin, just south of Highway 50. June 20. They ranged in size from 6 to 12 inches in diameter.
Does anyone know what kind of eriogonum they are?

These are very nice plants. They would need very dry conditions to do well as the desert in which they grow receives about 7 inches of rain a year.
