Annual polemonium (Polemonium micranthum)

Annual polemonium

Annual polemonium is a delicate alpine perennial known for its tiny, bell-shaped flowers, often with shades of blue or violet. This dwarf species thrives in cool, rocky mountain terrains, its low stature helping it endure harsh, windy conditions. The fern-like leaves of annual polemonium are pinnately divided, forming an elegant rosette at the plant's base, which provides a subtle backdrop to its clusters of blossoms in the spring and early summer.
