Navarretia Klickitatensis

Klickitat bellflower, scientifically known as Navarretia klickitatensis, is a rare and delicate wildflower native to the Pacific Northwest of the United States. This small, herbaceous plant is characterized by its bell-shaped, white or pale purple flowers that bloom in early spring. It thrives in moist, shaded environments such as forest floors and stream banks, often in areas with rich, organic soil. Due to habitat loss and climate change, the Klickitat bellflower is considered endangered, making conservation efforts crucial for its survival. Despite its modest size, this plant plays an important role in supporting local ecosystems and biodiversity.
