S. sonomensis 12' Leaf ± gray-velvety from minute appressed  Parallel or nearly parallel to and often in contact with surface of origin; used to describe the disposition of hairs, leaves, pedicels, etc. hairs; inflorescence generally > 10 dm 14. Leaf blade  Expanded portion of a leaf, petal, or other structure, generally flat but sometimes rolled, cylindric, wavy, or cupped. base tapered  Gradually (not abruptly) narrower or smaller at base or tip. ; calyx lobes ± or not spine-tipped; flowers in ± spike-like clusters, arranged in ± raceme-like, interrupted panicles  1. In flowering plants excluding Asteraceae, Cyperaceae, Poaceae, and some other groups, a branched inflorescence in which the basal or lateral flowers (or some of them) open before the terminal or central flowers on any axis. 2. In Asteraceae, Cyperaceae, Poaceae, and some other groups, a panicle-like inflorescence is one in which at least some of the inflorescence units (e.g., heads in Asteraceae; spikelets in Cyperaceae and Poaceae), instead of individual flowers, are attached (stalked or unstalked) to branches and not directly to the main axis of the inflorescence and in which floral development may or may not proceed as in 1. .....

The free tips of otherwise fused structures, such as sepals or petals; larger than teeth. < 1/2 length; leaf puckered, teeth rounded, hairs simple or branched, moderately dense to sparse, spreading  Oriented more or less perpendicularly to the axis of attachment; often, more or less horizontal. 16. Leaf blade base ± truncate to ± cordate  Heart-shaped; often pertaining to a leaf in which the blade base on both sides of the petiole is rounded and convex. ; leaf ashy-gray, hairs branched; tissue between anther sacs glabrous .....
