Near base of coastal cliffside, along riparian zone

@markegger Triphysaria or Castilleja? Neother is expected/collected here, in the same vernal pool complex as C. ambigua ambigua

Underside of leaf different color from top => A. crustacea

large population, most plants still not blooming

most individuals white flowered, one very yellow individual, a few light yellow/cream

many individuals in this pop with hot pink abaxial petal surfaces and bright red sepals (sometimes on the same individual or not)

(on east cuesta ridge!, not a known locality for A. pilosula) found two individuals growing next to each other, did not exhaustively search the area for more individuals.

3-liguled flowers. Photosynthetic stems, no leaves in July. Spines. Super cool.
