Calycadenia fremontii
Also called Fremont's tackweed, Fremont's calycadenia, Klamath calycadenia, Frémont's western rosinweed
Calycadenia fremontii is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family known by the common name Frémont's western rosinweed (after John C. Frémont). It is native to southwestern Oregon (Josephine + Jackson Counties) and northern California (mostly north of Napa and Placer Counties but with a few isolated populations in Santa Clara and Tuolumne Counties). It is a common member of the flora in several types of habitat in the mountains, foothills, and valleys. This annual plant is variable in appearance.
Calycadenia fremontii produces a rigid, erect, hairy stem reaching a top height anywhere between 10 centimeters (2 inches) and one meter (40 inches). The leaves are linear in shape and arranged alternately along the stem, especially on the lower part. The largest is up to 8 centimeters long.
