Sara Plummer Lemmon
Sara Allen Plummer Lemmon (September 3, 1836 – 1923) was an American botanist. A number of plants are named for her, as is Mount Lemmon in Arizona for being the first white woman to ascend it. She was responsible for the designation of the golden poppy as the state flower of California in 1903.〔("California Beat Hero: Sara Plummer Lemmon" ), May 27, 2009.〕 Harvard University botanist Asa Gray named the new genus ''Plummera'', now called ''Hymenoxys'', in her honor.
