Phyteuma Scheuchzeri Subsp. Columnae

Phyteuma scheuchzeri subsp. columnae is a rare and striking plant native to the alpine regions of Europe. It is known for its tall, slender stems and clusters of pale yellow to orange flowers that bloom in late summer. This subspecies is closely related to other members of the Campanulaceae family, which includes bellflowers and bluebells. Due to its limited habitat and sensitivity to environmental changes, it is considered vulnerable. Conservation efforts are essential to protect this unique and beautiful plant from extinction.
