Needs description edit
As is often the case for these narrow Baja endemics, I'm currently struggling to find any papers actually describing what the plant looks like (including the original Greene description) - would be great if someone could find something so there can at least be a description section...

- @FlightTerminationSystem:, if an original description is old enough to be out of copyright protection, there's a good chance you can find it on Biodiversity Heritage Library. Tropicos (which you can access from the taxonbar) often has links to original descriptions on BHL. In the Tropicos record for this species, there is a BHL icon you can click on at the far right of the Published In: line, which takes you the original description on BHL. IPNI records may also have links to descriptions on BHL, albeit less frequently than Tropicos in my experience. Plantdrew (talk) 02:05, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
- Fantastic, thanks! That is super useful info for this and other pages I'm working on! FlightTerminationSystem (talk) 02:56, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
