This one is throwing me. White-woolly, dark phyllaries (?) with white hairs, looks like a pink corolla, quite common. I feel like I'm overlooking something obvious.

Observed in coastal scrub / grassland at Sweeney Ridge, near Pacifica, CA (SF Bay Area), USA.

I intended this as a Marah fabaceus / oregana comparison shot showing different corolla depths, but the M. oregana on the right doesn't actually look that deep. Anyway, you can still see how the flower of M .fabaceus is small, not white, and practically flat.
