Micromeria douglasii
Species of flowering plant / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Micromeria douglasii, synonym Clinopodium douglasii,[2] or yerba buena,[3] is a rambling aromatic herb of western and northwestern North America, ranging from maritime Alaska southwards to California.[4] The plant takes the form of a sprawling, mat-forming perennial, and is especially abundant close to the coast.[5] The name "yerba buena" derives from Spanish for "good herb" and is applied to various other plants. In 2010, molecular evidence placed the species within the Clinopodium complex rather than Micromeria.[6]
