As a northern California coastal native, this plant is a favorite of many pollinators, including the endangered Mission blue butterfly from San Francisco. Its hairy leaves and stems give way to tiny blue or lavender flowers, each under a centimeter long. The funnel-shaped flowers grow in one-sided, coiled clusters that uncurl as the flowers open in sequence. It grows to about 1 foot tall and wide and prefers well-drained soil in sun to part shade.
