About Phacelia gymnoclada Torr. ex S.Watson
Phacelia gymnoclada is an annual herb. Its stem is branching, and can grow spreading or upright, reaching up to roughly 20 centimeters in length. The plant is glandular and covered in short hairs. Its lance-shaped or oval leaves, which measure a few centimeters long with lobed or wavy edges, are mostly borne low on the plant. The hairy inflorescence is a one-sided curving or coiling cyme that holds funnel- or bell-shaped flowers. Each flower grows up to one centimeter long, with a yellow tubular throat and five corolla lobes that are usually lavender in color. Narrow, elongated sepals surround each flower.
