Parry's Hawkweed

Hieracium parryi

Parry's Hawkweed is a native North American perennial herb of the daisy family, found in southwestern Oregon and northeastern California, with yellow flower heads on stems up to 45 cm tall. It is a wild species rather than a common garden plant, so it grows best in conditions that mimic its natural grassy slopes and brush openings.
