Read about Zaluzianskya selaginoides in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Zaluzianskya selaginoides, Walp. (Nycterinia selaginoides, Benth.). Dwarf annual, branched at the base, 3-5 in. high, rarely 6 in., with spatulate lvs. and fls. 3/4 - 1 in. long, color of fls. not stated by Bentham, but in R.H. 1896, p. 308 (same picture as Gn. 24, p. 89) the fls. are said to range from white to lilac and darker depending on their stage of development, with an orange-colored eye which becomes crimson later. This suggests the preceding species, and it is evident that the two must be distinguished by technical characters until the colors can be verified. G.C. III. 55:173.—The plant once advertised in America as Nycterinia selaginoides is said to be a pink-fld. half-hardy perennial, growing 9 in. high, which does not agree with authentic descriptions. A species passing under this name is hardy at San Francisco.
