Claytonia palustris
Also called Jonesville Spring Beauty, Marsh Claytonia
Jonesville springbeauty is a small rhizomatous perennial wildflower native to wet meadows, bogs and streamsides in northern and central California. It is best grown in consistently moist, cool conditions, and is rarely cultivated outside its native range.
Claytonia palustris is a species of wildflower in the family Montiaceae known by the common names Jonesville springbeauty and marsh claytonia. Often mistaken for Claytonia sibirica, the species is diploid (2n = 12) with a chromosome base number of x = 6.
The wildflower is endemic to California where it is a rare species indigenous to wetlands including bogs, fens, meadows and streamside riparian thickets at low- to mid-elevations of the Klamath Mountains, Cascade Range, and Sierra Nevada as far south as the Kern and Tule River watersheds.
