Piperia leptopetala is uncommon but widely distributed in California. Its flowers have the narrowest sepals and petals of the genus; this gives the inflorescence a lacy appearance. Piperia leptopetala blooms earlier than sympatric P. transversa and P. elongata, two species with which it is sometimes confused.
