This plant received good nutrients and plentiful moisture and it is nearly triple the height and width of the plant shown on the opening  Phacelia page  and the flower cluster at upper right (and shown below) is almost as tall as the entire plant on the opening page.

Flowers are in a cyme arrangement and flared out like a scorpion-tail.  (A number of Phacelias are called "Scorpion Tail".)  Sand clings to the plant's sticky, glandular hairs which you can see projecting from the sides of the flower stem in the middle of the photograph.
