		Ceanothus occurs in the chaparral, Yellow pine forest and pinyon-juniper woodland and ranges from Oregon, east to Arizona and south to California and continuing to the Sierra de San Borja, Baja California.
		Ceanothus often forms a successional type of chaparral in southern California where several species may dominate as seedling shrubs in the early stages of development after fire.
		Ceanothus is very attractive to bees and is an important source of honey in many areas.

		Although the exact fire response mechanism of Lakeside ceanothus is not known, fire is presumed to be an important factor in the life cycle of this species.
		Lakeside ceanothus occurs primarily in the eastern portion of the Crestridge reserve, on west-facing slopes and ridges in dense southern mixed chaparral.

	Species: Ceanothus cuneatus
		It is believed that wedgeleaf ceanothus' vigorous root growth beyond the maximum penetration of grass roots in the 1st year of growth is critical to obtaining enough moisture to establish [96].
		Wedgeleaf ceanothus stand development is not easily predicted and is dependent on a number of variables including plant association, habitat type, proximity to boundaries with other habitat types, geographic and topographic location, climate, fire intensity, and time since last fire [51].
		The foliage, twigs, and seedlings of wedgeleaf ceanothus are highly palatable to mule deer, fl-tailed deer, and domestic sheep and goats [20,47,97].

	Sunset: It's glory time for ceanothus - California native plants - Gardening - Outdoor Living
		Spectacular in flower and capable of surviving on limited rainfall alone, ceanothus are increasingly recognized as dependable landscape plants.
		When you grow ceanothus in your garden, try to give these same conditions; in moist, warm soil, they can succumb to root rot caused by water mold (Phytophthora), which exists in all soils.
		Though different kinds show different susceptibility to disease (the ceanothus listed in the chart at left are the most resistant), plants in heavy, rich, and moist soils do not usually live very long.

		Often thought of as an 'organ support' remedy, Ceanothus is well known for its affinity to the spleen and symptoms arising from an enlarged spleen and because of this it is regarded as a left sided remedy.
		Not only does the 'red' suggest its affinity to the blood but that also it is the roots of the shrub which have been used historically by herbalists and they contain anticarcinogenics (the homeopathic preparation uses only the leaves).

		Many other endemics originated through differentiation or adaptive radiation, whereby multiple species develop from a common ancestor to take advantage of diverse ecological conditions.
		California's great abundance of species of California lilac (Ceanothus) is an example of adaptive radiation.
		Many California endemics have become endangered, as urbanization, logging, overgrazing, and the introduction of exotic species have encroached on their habitat.
