Various species of paintbrush, beardtongues, lousewort, owl's clover, Chinese houses, and plantain. |
The flowers of this lousewort are yellowish and occur in crowded heads on low spreading stems, 4-6 in. |
Leafy lousewort may be found in open coniferous woods or in openings in the forest at timberline. |
Among the common wildflowers are one-flowered cinquefoil, woolly lousewort, alpine willowherb, three saxifrages, and an Indian paintbrush. |
The lousewort grows mostly on north-facing riverbanks because the vegetation is less dense there. |
Swamp lousewort, however, is a taller, more upright plant, and its leaves have no stalk or only a very short stalk. |
