Penstemon platyphyllus. June 24, 1984, Salt Lake County, approx. 5300 ft elevation, north of the base of Big Cottonwood Canyon, to the north of the gun club. Scanned from a slide.This is a fairly narrowly restricted Utah endemic plant species with primarily a Wasatch Front distribution (Davis, Salt Lake, Weber Cos. primarily, reportedly barely into Utah Co., disjunct in Duchesne Co. and in Tooele Co.). It grows in a wide elevational range from along the Bonneville Shoreline (and I have seen it at least as low as 4800 ft.) and is reported from elevations in the 7900 to 8900 ft. range. Habitat is in open, rocky or gravelly places, sometimes in rock crevices. Plants become shrubby and grow easily from seed and are appropriate for horticulture/use (although they do become somewhat malodorous in the fall in a garden setting).

Penstemon platyphyllus Rydb. A primarily Wasatch front endemic plant species. While globally restricted, it is relatively abundant in some places, but at this location there are very few plants.Despite its common name, its upper cauline leaves aren't broad, with the lower cauline leaves becoming broader and more ovate-shaped. Note the horseshoe-shaped anthers.May 31, 2012, Mile High Forest Service property scheduled to be sold, approx. 5190 ft. elev.

The Utah endemic Penstemon platyphyllus peeking out from behind a rock crevice. It typically grows in rocky, well-drained soils, and at the bases of rock outcrops, but isn't a rock crevice plant per se. The dominant flowering native plant currently, and locally abundant (I dislike that terminology, but it applies in this case) here. This was the scene as I encountered it.June 14, 2012, Burch Hollow area, Millcreek Canyon, Salt Lake County, Utah, approx. 5,410 ft. elev.
