Disturbed remnant patch of Los Angeles coastal prairie, with semi-permanent pools and vernal pool remnants (both now fed partially by urban runoff), annual grassland, willow woodland, and coastal sage scrub. Former oil field with gravel service road remnants. Area partially “revegetated” with CA native species which may or may not be native to the site.
Flowering
Uncommon 50 cm tall perennials in open areas; fls. purple with yellow banner patch. These were planted here at part of revegetation effort and the sp. was probably not native here.
