Castilleja septentrionalis (Sulphur Paintbrush) 10 Seeds
Known as Sulphur Paintbrush, Northern Painted Cup, Pale Painted Cup, and Northern Yellow Paintbrush. It is a native perennial wildflower/forb that enjoys full to part sun and cool summer weather. It tolerates heat and drought but is generally found is moister locations than most other Castilleja, regardless of elevation. Basically, an intermediate water preference that sits between linariifolia,chromosa,flava, and miniata,minor. I would still think septentrionalis prefers more moisture than applegatei, pulchella and rhexiifolia. Extremely hardy to wind and frigid temps, they also tolerate poor, salty-sandy and rocky soil. Resist deer but not livestock. Blooms in May and will continue to bloom through September at higher elevations or with mid-day shade and a little extra water. It's common habitat in Utah is around 7,000-9,000 ft. in sagebrush meadows, dense hillsides, and wooded areas relatively close to running water. These are an excellent choice for xeriscapes, pollinator garden
