Arctostaphylos crustacea, commonly known as brittleleaf manzanita, is a species of manzanita found mostly in the fog belt of the Central Coast of California and the San Francisco Bay Area.

Description

Plants of this species are generally shrubs of up to 3 m (9.8 ft) in height, with smooth, reddish bark, and ovate leaves that are 2–5 cm (0.79–1.97 in) long.

This species, unlike many others manzanitas, has bifacial leaves, leaves which mostly only have stomata on their lower surface.  Fruits of this species are depressed-globose (shaped like a squashed sphere) drupes which contain multiple separate nutlets. The flowers are urn-shaped and grow on multi-branched panicles. [3][5] Plants of this species, like some others in the genus Arctostaphylos, have a burl at their base from which they resprout from after the shrub is top-killed by fires.
