The shrubby downy manzanita is a common sight in the chaparral regions of California and Baja California.
Its dense branches and leaves create a protective barrier against wind and erosion.
In the spring, the downy manzanita produces clusters of small, white flowers that are pollinated by insects.
The flowers eventually mature into small, reddish-brown fruits that are an important food source for many animals, including birds, squirrels, and deer.
