|discussion=<p>Subspecies nana has been confused with <i></i>subsp.<i> asprella</i>, <i>Sidalcea celata</i>, <i>S. elegans</i>, and <i>S. glaucescens</i> and has been placed within <i>S. malviflora</i>. The type specimen (Jepson 14061) has small individuals with only two or three flowers and long rhizomes, and it does superficially resemble <i>S. reptans</i>, as Jepson suggested, but more robust individuals have more flowers and clearly show vegetative and reproductive similarity to <i></i>subsp.<i> asprella</i>.</p><!--
--><p>Subspecies nana occurs from California in the northern Sierra <i>Nevada</i> to southwestern Oregon.</p>
