This tall groundsel variety is a native perennial found across open slopes and meadows from British Columbia south to California and east to the Rockies. It performs best in partial to full sun with well-drained soil and consistent moisture during its spring and early summer growing period. A great addition to native wildflower gardens, it requires minimal care once established in an appropriate climate.
