Astragalus gilmanii
Gilman's milkvetch is a small, low-growing desert herb of the pea family from southeastern California and Nevada, found in desert scrub and woodland. It is a wild native rather than a commonly grown garden plant, so care is mainly about its dry, open habitat.
Astragalus gilmanii is a species of milkvetch known by the common name Gilman's milkvetch. It is native to the desert scrub and woodland of Nevada, the California Sierra Nevada and Inyo Mountains, and it is known from a few locations in the Panamint Range adjacent to Death Valley in California.
