“Cropping up amid sandy soils of desert plains and rocky slopes of dry volcanic regions east of Oregon’s Cascades – often in sagebrush communities, this enthralling species can be recognized by its tapering cluster of salmon-pink to deep-coral-orange flowers that ascend atop slender stems of kidney-shaped and pinnately lobed leaves. White-stemmed Globemallow / Munro’s globemallow also brightens up the scenery with a silvery coating of star-shaped hairs that covers the stems and foliage. Moderately easy to care for, this subshrub perennial is a nutrient source for bees and butterflies like the common checkered skipper (Pyrgus communis) and the northern white skipper (Heliopetes ericetorum). Grow Munro’s globemallow in full sun to light shade in a wildflower meadow or wildlife garden. This species is drought-tolerant and even prefers very low to extremely low moisture.” - Oregon Flora
