Horkelia Fusca Var. Pseudocapitata

Horkelia fusca var. pseudocapitata is a rare and striking wildflower native to the arid regions of western North America. This plant is known for its distinctive blue to purple flowers that bloom in late spring and early summer. It thrives in rocky soils and often grows in open habitats such as grasslands and sagebrush steppe. Due to habitat loss and climate change, this species is becoming increasingly endangered. Conservation efforts are crucial to preserving its unique ecological role and floral beauty.
