Arctostaphylos franciscana, known by the common name Franciscan manzanita, is a species of manzanita. (wikipedia.org)
Franciscan manzanita was formerly considered as a subspecies of Hooker's manzanita until elevated to full species rank following modern genetic analysis and comparisons. (wikipedia.org)
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service designated the Franciscan manzanita as an endangered species on October 5, 2012. (wikipedia.org)
Additionally, some of the species that characterize mainland chaparral communities, such as manzanita, are replaced in island chaparral by endemic species that are unique to the Channel Islands. (nps.gov)

The goals of this evaluation were to develop comparative data on hardiness of Ceanothus cultivars and species and identify cultivars that were capable of tolerating typical cold events in a Pacific Northwest winter. (oregonstate.edu)
The genus Ceanothus , also known as wild lilac or simply ceanothus, comprises approximately 55 species of woody shrubs native to North America (Hardig et al. (oregonstate.edu)
The climate in the California floristic province in which many of the species of ceanothus originated is Mediterranean, with mild, rainy winters and warm to hot, dry summers. (oregonstate.edu)
Little specific information on the cold hardiness of species of ceanothus cultivars is available. (oregonstate.edu)

Bearberry2
Arctostaphylos uva-ursi , known by a large number of common names including common bearberry and kinninnick, is an extremely winter hardy, creeping, slow-growing, prostrate, woody evergreen shrub that typically grows to 6-12" tall but spreads over time by flexible branching (roots at the nodes) to 3-6' wide or more. (missouribotanicalgarden.org)
Bearberry is a host plant for several butterfly species including Hoary Elfin, Brown Elfin and Freija Fritillary. (prairienursery.com)
Arctostaphylos columbiana is an evergreen Shrub growing to 1.5 m (5ft). (pfaf.org)
Arctostaphylos uva-ursi is an evergreen Shrub growing to 0.1 m (0ft 4in) by 1 m (3ft 3in) at a medium rate. (pfaf.org)
They began by cold stratifying the seeds of around eight native forb and shrub species last month. (ser.org)
Because this shrub has a high density in previously burnt forests, we investigated the effect that high temperatures, smoke and charcoal might have on seed germination of this species. (techscience.com)
Many chaparral species require smoke, heat or ash to help their seeds germinate, while others are adapted to re-sprout from below ground root systems following fires. (nps.gov)
In fact, the seeds of some species like toyon need to be buried in at least 30 years worth of leaf litter in order to germinate. (nps.gov)

Although the fossil record indicates that the native range of Douglas-fir has never extended beyond western North America, the species has been successfully introduced in the last 100 years into many regions of the temperate forest zone (31). (eopugetsound.org)
California2
Late bloomers include narrowleaf milkweed ( Asclepias fascicularis ), coyote brush ( Baccharis pilularis ), California fuchsia ( Epilobium canum ), goldenrod ( Solidago species), tarweeds ( Hemizonia and Madia species) and Pacific aster ( Symphyotrichum chilense ). (friendsofcortemaderacreek.org)

Subsp2
raceme (generally 0--1-branched) or panicle (generally 2--10-branched), terminal, nascent inflorescence present following stem growth, generally late spring through winter, remaining dormant 4--6 months prior to flower (except in Arctostaphylos pringlei subsp. (berkeley.edu)
Big Bear' is noted for having a more vigorous growth habit than the species, with larger leaves, large red fruit and red leaf color in winter. (missouribotanicalgarden.org)
The majority of the species are evergreen shrubs, which range in habit from prostrate to sprawling or erect large shrubs, although some may be found as small trees (Schmidt, 2003). (oregonstate.edu)

Habitat5
notes Habitat for this species and Eriogonum apricum var. (berkeley.edu)
To define the level of biodiversity in a specific habitat, scientists consider how many different species are present as well as the quantity of each species, the physical distribution of those species over land or sea, and the level of complexity in the interconnected communities they form, which are known as biomes or ecosystems. (friendsofcortemaderacreek.org)
A biological rule of thumb is that if you destroy 90% of any given habitat, you extirpate half of all the species found in that habitat . (tchester.org)
Previously, with 100% of their habitat intact, if a disturbance extirpated a species in 10% of that habitat, the species could easily recover by spreading from the remaining 90% of that habitat. (tchester.org)
Now, with only 10% of their habitat intact, any such disturbance extirpates the species forever. (tchester.org)
