Ericameria resinosa
Columbian goldenbush (Ericameria resinosa) is a small, resinous native shrub of the daisy family from the northwestern United States, growing up to about 50 cm tall. It is a plant of dry, rocky, well-drained sites, so drainage and full sun are the keys to growing it.
Ericameria resinosa, the Columbia goldenweed, or Columbia goldenbush, is a North American species of flowering shrubs in the family Asteraceae. It is native to the northwestern part of the United States, in the states of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.
Ericameria resinosa is a shrub up to 50 cm (20 inches) tall. It has leathery thread-like or narrowly oblanceolate leaves up to 25 mm (1 inch) long, with resinous glands on the surface. The flowers form at the tips of branches and are surrounded by a denser cluster of reduced leaves. Flower heads are white, with 10–15 disc florets and 0–7 ray florets. Its habitats include rocky plains, steep hillsides, and rocky cliffs, usually rooted in rock crevices.
