Layia glandulosa - whitedaisy tidytips Layia glandulosa growing on an unstable hillside adjacent to mountain big sagebrush steppe in good ecological condition. It is notable that Layia glandulosa, perhaps like many species of the tarweed subgroup of Asteraceae, is more abundant where disturbance is regular. This species was not observed in the adjacent sagebrush steppe. This site occurs along the Thomas Creek Drainage just east of the Thomas Creek trailhead, southwest Reno, Carson Range, Washoe County, Nevada.
