Erigeron linearis is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family known by the common name desert yellow fleabane.
This wildflower is native to western North America from the high mountains of California to northwestern Canada. This is a small clumping perennial daisy reaching a maximum height of 20 centimeters. Its leaves are mostly basal and are 2 to 9 centimeters long and green with some white coloration. The erect, somewhat hairy, leafless stems each bear a single flower head about a centimeter wide. It has a center of golden yellow disc florets and a fringe of pale to bright yellow ray florets.
Some Plateau Indian tribes used desert yellow fleabane as a poultice for treating sores. [1]
