Eriophyllum nubigenum
Yosemite woolly sunflower is a small, uncommon wildflower found only in the Sierra Nevada around Yosemite, and it is an annual with woolly stems and leaves and tiny golden flower heads. It is rarely grown in gardens, so there is little cultivation guidance; grow it like other native Californian alpine annuals in sun and very well-drained soil.
Eriophyllum nubigenum, the Yosemite woolly sunflower, is an uncommon flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is endemic to California, where it is known only from the Sierra Nevada in and around Yosemite National Park (in Tuolumne County and Mariposa County).
