| Perennials, 4–11 cm; taprooted, caudex branches usually relatively thick, woody. |
Perennials, 4–25(–50) cm; taprooted, caudices simple or branched, branches sometimes rhizomelike. |
erect, sparsely to moderately hispidulous and minutely glandular, sometimes merely glandular. |
ascending to erect, sparsely to densely hispido-pilose to glabrate, minutely glandular. |
mostly basal and proximal (persistent); basal blades spatulate to obovate (often folding), 20–40(–50) × 5–10 mm, margins pinnatifid (lobes linear), faces usually glabrate, sometimes sparsely hirsute, usually minutely glandular; cauline blades mostly linear, abruptly reduced distally or nearly absent, margins entire, usually coarsely ciliate. |
mostly basal (usually persistent) or basal and cauline (petioles prominently ciliate, hairs spreading, thick-based); blades narrowly oblanceolate to linear-oblong, 10–50(–80) × 1–4 mm, margins entire, usually ciliate, faces usually hirsute to hirsuto-villous, sometimes substrigose to glabrate, eglandular; cauline unreduced or gradually reduced distally. |
5.5–8 × 9–13 mm. |
4–7 × 7–12(–15) mm. |
40–70; corollas usually light blue, sometimes slightly purplish, drying bluish or fading lighter, 7–12 mm, laminae reflexing. |
50–100(–125); corollas white to pink or blue, 6–15 mm, laminae reflexing. |
