Found in moist soil along streams in the mountains of Western North America is this most attractive perennial with maple-like leaves up to 6 ins. across. The dense spikes of pinkish-white to rose-purple appear in early summer when, we are told, young Cooper's hawks are hatching. One further, useless, piece of information: the stems were chewed as gum by the Indians. 3-6 ft.
