Linanthus watsonii, also known as Watson's prickly phlox, is a flowering plant found in the western United States. It is a perennial subshrub that grows up to 10 centimeters high and has needle-like leaves. The flowers are white or yellowish with six lobes and can reach up to 2.8 centimeters in length. This plant is typically found in mountainous and canyon areas, growing in rock cracks and cliffsides. Due to its small and limited population size, it is considered vulnerable to threats, but its inaccessible locations on cliffs and canyons often provide protection.
