Packera Resedifolia
White paintbrush, scientifically known as Packera resedifolia, is a striking member of the Asteraceae family native to the mountainous regions of North America. This perennial herb is named for its distinctive white, brush-like flowers that bloom in late summer, creating a visual contrast against its dark green foliage. Found primarily in alpine and subalpine habitats, it thrives in rocky soils and high elevation environments. Its unique appearance has made it a favorite among botanists and wildflower enthusiasts. Despite its beauty, the plant is sensitive to habitat disturbance and requires careful conservation to ensure its survival.
