MAX, woody stemmed plants like this are listed under shrubs. The other wildflowers are subdivided into peas, daisies, etc.

Hi Mike, Thanks for pointing this Shrub listing out. Perhaps they should (in future) be listed under both categories (shrubs + peas). When the plants are in flower they can readily be ID in Pea family. When not in flower, shrub may be appropriate, but as a category this is very broad (even for 'Laypersons'. )
