Xylorhiza cronquistii grows in Kane County. S. L. Welsh et al. (2003) noted that it is "more or less intermediate in morphologic features between X. confertifolia and X. tortifolia var. imberbis; it occurs on habitats intermediate between the two parental types and is at the approximate summit of the distribution of the latter."
