INFORMATION PROVIDED WITH THE PHOTO

date of photo Jun 27, 2005

location Off Paradise Ridge Trail, above Atwell Mill Campground, off Mineral King Rd, Sequoia National Park (Tulare County, California, US)

family Polemoniaceae

notes Found this splendid population off trail at about 8000' elevation.

I used to have trouble sorting out Leptosiphon ciliatus (which can occur at fairly high elevation in the mountains), from the rather confusingly-named Leptosiphon montanus (which is typically a larger plant that usually grows at what I think of as lower 'foothill elevations' in the Sierra Nevada).

But I think I've got it straight now :-)
