Monument plants are distributed widely
across the Continental United States.
Given that, you might think they would shun higher elevations. On a mountain drive the other day, however, I
found many dozens of them growing in solitary fashion at elevations above 7000
feet. Some of the plants were two feet
tall and in full bloom.
Posted are two photographs I captured
of the flowers.
