Erythranthe grandis is the species[1] name of the Magnificent Seep Monkeyflower.

Description

Erythranthe grandis is a coastal perennial species closely related to E. guttata. It has prostrate growth habit, with many lateral branches (stolons). Many biological researchers still refer to this species as a coastal perennial ecotype of Mimulus guttatus[2], as it is completely inter-fertile with other inland annual and perennial populations[3]. E. grandis has evolved a higher level of salt tolerance than other related inland populations of E. guttata[4].

Range

Coastal areas from southern California to southern Washington State.

Habitat

Generally found in coastal seeps, cliff, or headland with high levels of soil moisture.
