Layia (Thomas Lay, naturalist in the Beechey voyage). Compositae. Annual herbs with yellow or white flowers in spring or early summer.
  −
 
  −
Leaves chiefly alternate, all entire or some, particularly the lower, pinnately toothed or lobed: flowers about 1-1 1/2in. across, and the rays distinctly 3-toothed; ray-flowers 8-20; disk-flowers fertile, their tubular corollas 5- toothed.—About 13 W. American species. The species described below are diffuse, much-branched and about a foot high. For general cultured they are probably inferior to Madia elegans, which has a similar habit and is distinguished by the blood-colored spot at the base of the rays. It is probable that for best results they should be started early indoors, and transplanted outdoors in May. Easy to grow.
