Forgive me sir, but I must respectfully disagree that this is E. 
granulata.  Note that the fruits are partially included within the cyathia 
at maturity.  This is the classic distinguishing characteristic of E. 
thymifolia.  The fruits of E. granulata are well exerted at maturity.  
Furthermore, all the material of E. granulata I have seen have hairs that 
are straight and spreading, not appressed as in E. thymifolia.

Regards,
Nathan Taylor
