Grand Linanthus
Grand Linanthus, Linanthus grandiflorus, grows in California's Coast Ranges of the Central Coast and San Francisco Bay Area. This endemic annual produces clusters of fragrant, funnel-shaped flowers in shades of white, pink, and lilac that bloom from April through July.
This important native wildflower provides essential nectar for moths and other nocturnal pollinators drawn to its sweet fragrance, which intensifies in the evening hours. The plant's extended blooming period and abundant nectar production make it a valuable resource for pollinating insects during the spring and early summer months when many other native plants have finished flowering.
Unfortunately, Linanthus grandiflorus is listed as a Vulnerable species by both the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the IUCN, appearing on the California Native Plant Society's Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants. Many known populations have been extirpated due to habitat loss, making conservation of remaining populations critical for the survival of this fragrant California endemic.
