Otay Mountain Lotus Bloom
Lotus crassifolius var. otayensis – Otay Mountain Lotus
Herbaceous perennial. These furry grey stems are generally upright, but can lay prone as they grow. Stunning clusters of purple and white pea-sized flowers are bursting out in spring. Evergreen grey-green oblong leaves. It’s a lovely plant year-round, but a show-stopper right about now.
Native to San Diego County, California, rare in the wild.
