Seaside Daisy
Erigeron glaucus
(Asteraceae)
The seaside daisy can deal with shifting sand dunes and scouring sea breezes that would create stress for less tolerant species. The flowers produced in this environment are elegantly sculpted combinations of dusty yellow, bright lavender, and seafoam green.
DISTRIBUTION: Coastal bluffs, dunes, and beaches from the North, Central, and Outer South Coast Ranges to the northern Channel Islands; < 200 m.
