Most of the Cryptantha species are hard to distinguish, but the basin yellow cryptantha (Cryptantha confertiflora) is the exception. With its all yellow corolla, it stands out from the bunch. It has some beautiful common names: Basin yellow catseye, Mojave popcorn flower, and golden-flowered cryptantha.
It's native to the southwestern U.S. and grows in gravelly locations from 4,000 to 9,000 feet.
