The Santa Ynez groundstars were growing alongside other small ephemeral plants during a brief window in spring, said Matt Guilliams, a botanist with the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden.
Plants whose life cycle is significantly less than the time of a growing season are deemed ephemeral. [37] Winter annuals, Epilobium and Senecio vulgaris are examples of ephemeral plants. [37] [38] The conditions for ephemeral plants are markedly present in deserts. [38] Animals can be ephemeral, with brine shrimp and the mayfly being examples.
V. thapsus is a dicotyledonous plant that produces a rosette of leaves in its first year of growth. [3] [4] The leaves are large, up to 50 cm long. The second-year plants normally produce a single unbranched stem, usually 1–2 m tall. In the eastern part of its range in China, it is, however, only reported to grow up to 1.5 m tall. [5]
