Notes: This shrub has clusters of funnel-shaped white to purplish flowers, 6–10 mm long.  The leaves are up to 15 cm, narrow, oblong to lanceolate, entire or toothed.  The leaves may be covered in a sticky resin, which can appear black from a fungus.  Photos #2 – 4 by CJH.

Notes: Like California Yerba Santa (Eriodictyon californicum, see above), this is a shrub with leaves about the same size and shape, but is otherwise quite different.  Both twigs and leaves are covered in dense white-woolly hairs giving it a silvery-blue to -gray appearance.  Leaves are entire to coarsely toothed.  Flowers are in dense fuzzy bunches of coiled, tiny, very light lavender to white, glandular, urn-shaped flowers.
