Along trail in meadow.
Very abundant. This population has a somewhat different color and growth form than typically seen in East River Valley. Entire plant, including flowers are glaucous. Inflorescences very long and thin. Leaflets somewhat thinner (narrower) than typical. These atypical plants are growing alongside more typical plants with dark flowers/green leaves. This is NOT D. ramosissimum which has very narrow leaflets.
