Description

Mimulus dentilobus is a tiny version of a monkeyflower. The small oval leaves are hairy margined. The corolla lobes are toothed. Mimulus dentilobus is found among streamside cliffs at middle elevation. If in sufficient abundance, it can spread to cover a large portion of a cliff with the tiny flowers raised above the small dark green leaves on long purple pedicels.
