''Hulsea vestita'' is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family known by the common name pumice alpinegold. It is native to eastern and southern California, where various subspecies grow in separate mountain ranges from the High Sierra to the Transverse Ranges and Peninsular Ranges, and Madrean Sky Islands in the Mojave Desert. One subspecies (''Hulsea vestita'' ssp. ''inyoensis'') also occurs in western Nevada. 〔(Calflora taxon report, University of California: ''Hulsea vestita'' (pumice alpinegold) ) . accessed 2.2.2013〕〔(Biota of North America Program 2014 county distribution map )〕 The plant can generally be found on the talus of mountain slopes, often in soils of volcanic origin. ==Description== ''Hulsea vestita'' is a perennial herb growing a basal patch of thick leaves and stems up to a meter (40 inches) tall, but generally much shorter. The woolly, spoon-shaped leaves are gray-green and may have ruffled edges. 〔(Flora of North America, ''Hulsea vestita'' A. Gray, 1865.
