Evergreen shrub
 
Galvezia juncea


Galvezia juncea - Cedros Island Snapdragon
A fine textured evergreen shrub 3 to 4 feet tall by 4 to 6 feet wide. The rush like stems bear small leaves and red flowers in spring. This plant tolerates dry conditions along the coast but looks better with occasional irrigation. We obtained our plants from the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden seed collection 96-047 from plants growing in Gran Canon on Cedros Island, Baja California where it was very common in the main wash and on hillsides with Pachycormus discolor, Vigiueria lanata, Rhus lentii, Encelia stenophyllus and Agave sebastiana.
