  1. This tiny foothill flower is a variety of a species also referred to as “beardtongue,” due to the hairy stamen that looks like a tongue in the center of lip-shaped flowers.
  2. This montane plant is the dominant shrub over vast areas of the Great Basin region, and the volatile oils responsible for its unique aroma are so flammable they burn very easily.

  4. The powdery white substance that grows on the bark of this subalpine tree is a natural sunscreen.
  5. This beautiful pink mountain-dwelling wildflower forms extensive moss-like carpets that almost seem to flow over the rocks and crevices high up in the mountains.
  6. Probably because of this subalpine plant’s large, heart-shaped basal leaves, Some Native American groups would mix the root of this plant with ocher and bird feather and used as sort of a love potion.
  7. The seeds of this foothill grass were ground for flour, mixed with water and cooked into a mush by the Navajo, Hopi, Apache, and Paiute, to name a few.

  9. The seeds of this knobby, segmented, low-lying valley shrub have been used as food, both currently and back through prehistory.
  10. This montane shrub rarely reproduces from acorns, but instead most of its reproduction is through its deep, extensive root system. This allows it to survive wildfires. Its acorns are mostly eaten by wild turkey, mule deer, and black bears.
  11. Despite its name, wildlife must find this desert-living shrub tasty, as it is a very important browse plant in the western states.

  6. A noxious weed in Utah, this montane grass creates dense monocultures, grows spiky seeds that stick to clothing and animal fur, and is highly flammable, contributing to intense wildfires.
  7. This valley plant grows in salty regions and is known as an “accumulator.” As it absorbs saltwater from the ground, the salt is removed and stored in special chambers within the plant that drop off in segments once they’re full.
  8. This native montane shrub can be used to make rubber, but the process isn’t cost-effective. Some Native American groups used it to make chewing gum, tea, cough syrup, and yellow dye, and the plant’s rubbery twigs were used in making baskets.
  9. Also known as Monument Plant, this impressively large and showy subalpine plant is monocarpic, meaning it produces flowers only once in its lifetime of 20-80 years and then dies.
