About

Brickellia dentata, known as the leafy or gravelbar brickellbush, is a rare North American species of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It has been found only in Texas in the south-central United States.

Where it grows

Brickellia dentata is endemic just to the U.S. state of Texas. On the iNaturalist page documenting observations of Brickellia dentata by citizen scientists it's seen that within Texas it occurs only in the hilly southwestern part. This hilly region is known as the Edwards Plateau; by ecologists it is regarded as the Central Texas Area of Endemism, and Brickellia dentata within this relatively small area is one of three edaphic endemic species.
