Also known as seep-spring monkey flower, it has both annual and perennial plants, and plants of varying sizes and foliage. These variable characteristics continue to prompt discussion about whether this plant is actually multiple separate species, or subspecies. Yellow monkeyflower can be found in both coastal and inland locations. It is consistently most associated with wet locations such as pond edges, or even growing directly in water as a fully aquatic plant with floating foliage. It has lobed, deep-yellow flowers with red inner spots that readily attract bumble bees, which force their way into the inner reaches of the flowers. Individual plants may be as small as just a few inches in height, or sprawling masses of more than 2 feet. Description from Northwest Meadowscapes
