Hazardia (Barclay Hazard, Californian botanist). Compositae. Small shrubs, with silvery leaves and peculiar, not pretty, heads of flowers, borne in August. One is suitable for rockeries and bedding out, but there are better woolly-leaved plants in cultivation.
The genus has about 4 species of stout, tomentose, deciduous subshrubs of Calif., and at least 1 species from the islands off the coast: heads white-tomentose, numerous, in large cymose panicles, which terminate the branches; rays 5-8, neutral, very short, ligulate or irregularly 5-toothed or lobed, pale yellow changing to brownish purple. In 1887, E. L. Greene made this new genus, remarking that it differs from Diploste- Iill.inn mainly in habit, the paucity, reduced size, and different color of its rays. It also lacks the tuft of hairs characteristic of the style-tips of Corethrogyne.
