I've run out of time tonight, but here are two close-ups of Hoffman's Bristly Jewelflower (Streptanthus glandulosus ssp. hoffmanii) photographed on serpentine outcrops at The Cedars yesterday:
P.S. I was wondering about the name "Streptanthus." According to The Jepson Manual it means "twisted flower"— after the wavy margins of the petals (visible in these photos).
I wonder who pollinates this flower...
