Pentstemon acuminatus. Douglas. Glaucous, strict and usually stiffish, 2 ft. or less tall: lvs. thickish, the lowermost broadly ovate to obovate. the uppermost broad- lanceolate to broad-ovate and clasping and usually acuminate, the floral lvs. shorter than the fls.: infl. narrow, the peduncles 1-3 or more-fld.; fls. nearly 1 in. long, lilac to violet, wide at the throat, the obtuse lobes spreading; sterile filament bearded at the tip. Neb. and Minn., south and far westward. B.R. 1285. —Very satisfactory. There is confusion in the application of the name P. acuminatus. P. nitidus, Douglas (P. Fendleri, Gray), sometimes referred here, is considered to be a distinct species, with upper lvs. ovate or narrower. Sask. to Mex., and westward. CH
