Sisyrinchium arizonicum

A yellow-flowered blue-eyed grass found in southeastern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico. Unlike other yellow-flowered Sisyrinchium in the area, the stems are branched and leafy. Not realizing there were any yellow-flowered Sisyrinchium, I originally thought this was a Hypoxis; thanks to R. Osorio for correcting me.

Flowers near the Reef townsite in the Huachuca Mts., 8/8/05.



Plant habit in the Huachucas, 8/8/05.
