Description

Physaria subumbellata is a cruciferous plant species that was first described by Reed Clark Rollins, and got its current name from O'kane and Al-shehbaz. Physaria subumbellata is part of the genus Physaria and the family of cruciferous plants. No subspecies are listed in the Catalog of Life. Physaria is a genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae. Many species are known generally as twinpods, bladderpods, or lesquerella. They are native to the Americas, with many species endemic to western North America. They are densely hairy annual and perennial herbs often growing prostrate or decumbent, along the ground in patches or clumps. They bear inflorescences of bright yellow flowers. The fruit is often notched deeply, dividing into twin sections, giving the genus its common name.
