Alpine Eu.—Has been offered as a neat little rock-plant. It should be given shade and a cool moist soil. The material growing in Colo. and formerly called T. alpestre is now considered a distinct species, T. coloradense, Rydb. Perennial, cespitose: basal lvs. rosulate, broadly spatulate, sinuately crenate or subentire; cauline lvs. oblong or obovate, obtuse: infl. short and dense; fls. white; sepals with a white margin. Mountains of Wyo. and Colo. The fls. are larger than those of T. alpestre and the pod differs. It is uncertain whether the material in cult. in Amer. is this plant or T. alpestre.
