Geraea viscida is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family known by the common name sticky geraea, or sticky desertsunflower. It is native to southern California, mainly the chaparral hills of eastern San Diego County, and northern Baja California. This is a bristly, hairy perennial geophyte producing scrubby stems reaching anywhere from 30 centimeters to nearly a meter in height. The slightly hairy leaves are several centimeters long and generally oval-shaped, sometimes with small teeth and basal lobes. The flower cluster holds one or more flower heads which are knobby clusters of yellow disc florets with no ray florets. The phyllaries surrounding the flower head are particularly sticky. The fruit is an achene up to a centimeter long, not including its pappus hairs.
