Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Epilobium cleistogamum, also known as selfing willowherb, is a small annual plant found in central California. It grows in vernal pools and mudflats and has fuzzy pointed green leaves with knobby and gland-tipped hairs. The flowers of this plant are usually cleistogamous, meaning they self-pollinate without opening, but some do open to reveal pinkish-purple to nearly white petals. The fruit is a tough four-sided capsule.
