E. arenarius leaves [Winkler Co.].

by Bob Harms 

Leaf vestiture and vennation are discussed on separate pages.

Leaves are oriented toward the branch tip (upward), shallow u–shaped (not conduplicate as with E. sericeus), linear to narrowly elliptical, length/width ratio ca. 1:8—1:12, leaf apex acute, base cuneate, petiole < 1 mm if present. Even in the scanned images below the denser pubescence on the upper surface is clear [click for larger versions].
