Flowers: corolla glabrous or sparsely white-lanate internally abaxially; pollen-sac sides glabrous. 2n = 16.


Phenology: Flowering May–Aug(–Oct).
Habitat: Pinyon-juniper, Gambel oak, ponderosa pine, and spruce-fir woodlands, montane meadows.
Elevation: 1800–3200 m.

Distribution

Discussion

Variety torreyi occurs from the Mogollon Rim northeastward. Some specimens (for example, D. B. Dunn 6155, Torrance County, New Mexico, KANU), which otherwise match var. torreyi, bear anthers with a few straight hairs 0.1–0.2 mm.

Selected References

None.

Lower Taxa

None.
