Description:
Considered by many to be our most lovely shrubby Monkey Flower. The large flowers are an exquisite, pale apricot color, and occur in spring and summer. The leaves are narrow and glossy green. The Apricot Monkeyflower must have good drainage and in full or filtered sun, it is a fine drought tolerant garden plant. It is somewhat lower growing than other species, and is found in the Sierra foothills as well as the Pinnacles, and the Santa Lucia’s.
