Oreocarya confertiflora

Oreocarya confertiflora is a species of wildflower in the family Boraginaceae known by the common names basin yellow catseye and Mojave popcorn flower.

This is a common desert plant native to the southwestern United States.

The stems grow from a woody caudex and form a rough clump of hairy, bristly gray-green leaves in dry, rocky areas.

Out of the clump grow erect stems topped with dense inflorescences of hairy mustard-yellow flowers.

Each flower is tubular with sepals wrapped around the tube below a flat-faced or curled-back corolla of five lobes.
