Arabis Hirsuta Subsp. Eschscholtziana

Arabis hirsuta subsp. eschscholtziana is a lesser-known yet striking member of the Brassicaceae family. Native to the coastal regions of southern California and northern Baja California, this plant thrives in sandy, well-drained soils. Its hairy leaves and clusters of small, yellow flowers make it a unique addition to rock gardens and coastal landscapes. Despite its beauty, it remains relatively obscure in horticultural circles. This subspecies offers a fascinating glimpse into the adaptability and resilience of coastal flora.
