J20170615-0061—Leucothoe davisiae—RPBG—DxO

            Leucothoe davisiae—Sierra laurel. The species bears the name of Nancy Jane Davis, a 19th century botanist who collected the plant in Nevada County in 1863.  Little other information is available on this botanist on the world wide web, pity.  This low-growing shrub favors bogs and other wet places in the Sierra Nevada and Warner and Klamath Mountains of California and neighboring Oregon.  The leaves are deadly to sheep, as little as two ounces have been known to kill a sheep. In spite of this, at least one garden writer says the plant is under-used in West Coast gardens.  Photographed at Regional Parks Botanic Garden located in Tilden Regional Park near Berkeley, CA.
