Varieties 4 (4 in the flora). Penstemon deustus comprises four marginally discrete varieties. Extreme forms of each variety are distinctive, but extensive zones of contact exist among the varieties, and populations frequently exhibit degrees of intermediacy, especially in Oregon where all four varieties occur. The Paiute and Shoshoni tribes, centered in the Great Basin, used Penstemon deustus to treat dermatological, gastrointestinal, immunological, and other disorders (D. E. Moerman 1998).

Penstemon oklahomensis is known from 26 counties primarily in east-central Oklahoma and in Lamar County, Texas (J. N. Mink et al. 2010). (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
