Mertensia lanceolata brachyloba (Mertensia lanceolata brachyloba)
Description
The common name Foothills Mertensia is somewhat misleading, as this species occurs up to alpine elevations. The growth form of this species is highly variable. The first photo is typical of plants found in the foothills, while the second photo shows a plant at subalpine elevation.
