Types of Bartsia

Alpine bartsia

Alpine bartsia is a wildflower that grows in mountainous areas. The plant has mostly been eliminated in habitats used for grazing animals and is therefore not widely distributed. It is hemiparasitic, meaning it gains energy from a host plant as well as light. It requires pollination for seed germination.
