Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: GREEN GENTIAN or MONUMENT PLANT
This 2 to 6 foot tall plant, with small beautiful flowers covering most of its length can be found in mountain meadows on semi-moist open slopes as well as dryer areas. It is native to the western US. Photos were taken along the Cody Meadow trail. Native Americans enjoyed the roots of this plant cooked or raw, but to most they are bitter-tasting. Green gentian is a biennial which means it takes two years to complete its growth cycle. Its first year of growth produces the stalk and some of the whorled leaves. It is not until the second year that the buds form and then flower. |
