[Wikipedia] Habitat, Plant Info: Neogaerrhinum filipes is native to the sandy deserts of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico.[7] Its flowering period is from March to May.[5] The plants, due to being hidden by low bushes, are hard to spot because its stem is usually covered by the leaves and twigs of other plant species.[2] Locations where the species has been documented include slopes in the Grand Canyon, within the Mohave Desert and within the Sonoran Desert.[8][9][4] (link added by Mary Ann Machi)
