Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Oreocarya (Greek, mountain nut, referring to habitat and the nutlets comprising the fr.). Boraginaceae. About 20 species of mostly biennial rough or hispid herbs separated in recent years from Eritrichium and Krynitzkia. They are natives of W. N. Amer. and Mex. They are scarcely known as horticultural subjects, as only now and then are some of them transferred to gardens. They are white- or yellow- fld., the blossoms being on the order of myosotis: Lvs. alternate, narrow: roots woody: fls. in crowded thryse- like or paniculate clusters, the calyx 5-parted; corolla salver- form, crested in the throat, 5- lobed; stamens 5, not exserted, often dimorphic; ovary deeply 4- lobed, becoming 4 nutlets. Many species are native in the Wyo.- Colo.-Utah region.
